Roosevelts-American Royalty

Since when are the Kennedys royalty? The last time I checked none of them went around calling themselves the Duke of Massachusetts, unless Teddy does it in a drunken stupor.

If you mean have vast quantities of Roosevelts in politics instead of Kennedys, perhaps one or more of TR's children gets into politics. You could have one of his sons follow a similar career path, at least to start with - NYC Police Commissioner, senator, etc. If he's competent enough, he could be a Senator about the time FDR is making his first run for the White House. That might lead to some juicy Committee position if there is a strong enough familial link between FDR and TR's son (I'm not sure, but I don't think they were extremely closely related). From there, he builds a career and power base similar to what Joe Kennedy Sr. had. Add a wife and six or seven kids (lobotomies optional), and voila! :confused:
