I THINK WE NEED SOME MORE LADIES.
Alice Roosevelt, eldest daughter of Theodore Roosevelt
Alice led an unconventional and controversial life. Despite her love for her legendary father, she proved to be almost nothing like him. Her marriage to Representative Nicholas Longworth (Republican-Ohio), a party leader and 43rd Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, was shaky, and the couple’s only child was a result of her affair with Senator William Borah of Idaho. She temporarily became a Democrat during theKennedy and Johnson administrations, and proudly boasted in a 60 Minutes interview with Eric Sevareid broadcast February 17, 1974, that she was a “hedonist”.
