Try reading a book called Lies My Teacher Told Me by James Loewen... that may have some dirt on the above mentioned.

Hellen Keller was blind and deaf. She was very anti war, and also worked hard for women voting rights. Yes she believed in socialism and worked hard supporting birth control. Now I don't call that dirt, just facts about her life.

Theordore Roosevelt, studied in Germany after college, he was married twice. He was a hunter and enjoyed hunting. He was a political appointment by Harrison after Harrison was elected. He raised his own "army" group, the rough riders, and used them in the attack on Cuba.
** Just think if Bush or one of the military leaders under him today had their own private army group to use in war. There was a scandal with Archbald and standard oil about money given for the political party

DWIGHT EISENHOWER: (http://www.who2.com/dwightdeisenhower.html) While fighting World War II in Europe, Eisenhower allegedly began an affair with his driver, Kay Summersby. The story goes that Ike planned to divorce his wife Mamie and marry Summersby; his superior, General George Marshall (http://www.who2.com/georgecmarshall.html), quashed the plan by threatening to bust him out of the army. The rumor stayed mostly under wraps until 1975, when Summersby wrote a controversial book titled Past Forgetting: My Love Affair with Dwight D. Eisenhower.
His secretary of state had to leave office because of possible issues with money and gifts, By his 6th year in office his popular rating was below 36 percent
