Where is Teddy when you need him most?

and nothing about the loyalty to a specific party
Oh Teddy, where you are you in this century?

birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming
in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no
divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something
else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the
American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the
English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is
a loyalty to the American people."
