    Eleanor Roosevelt was not only a prudent first lady of the United States of America but also a very talented and compassionate humanitarian. Likewise, I deeply admire her for the many wonderful things she did throughout her life including the fact that she was a member of the United Nations and the fact that she was one of the people who advocated for universal human rights.

    The FDR administration probably wouldn't of been as successful as it was if it wasn't for the teamwork between Eleanor and Franklin. Both of them encouraged each other to reach for their goals and accomplish them. As a result, Eleanor became the most powerful and influential First Lady in USA history. She was really Franklin Roosevelt's eyes and ears when it came to the concerns of ordinary Americans. She would write up reports and set them by Franklin's bedside for him to read and report to his cabinet. Truly an amazing woman who helped change the world.

    De St we live in a world where we lift up women. Women have been put down for years and it’s been up to now where they’ve actually been able to be someone one. And for this women to say that kellyanne is not smart enough nor the integrity is completely backwards. If Eleanor was here today, would she agree with kellyanne on all things, no. But she would support her in her effort because Eleanor grew up in a time where women seldom spoke their opinions and for kellyanne to speak her opinions, that’s a major advancement

    Nah, She was far more progressive and more courageous with her politics than Hillary.. Hillary only came to certain liberal positions when it had enough popular support behind it to give her enough political cover. Eleanor didn’t give a flying F how popular something was - she just stood by her principals from day one, no matter the risk to her or her husbands reputation or political careers.
