One interesting thing- FDR used to drive himself down to the library to work (he visited Springwood over 200 times during his presidency- the only sitting president to use his library) and had a special entrance constructed so he could park a foot from the door and propel himself the five feet to his desk- all while being sheltered from view of visitors and photographers by the car and the building.

All the FRD pictures are beautiful and very interesting. Could he get away with that now!! but did it diminish his abilites because he couldn't walk? The tabloids would have had a field day with him.
