| | It just says in passing that Roosevelt was "himself partly of Dutch-Jewish ancestry." The second hit, from something called "Historical Review Press," is a long, rambling, and unpleasant anti-semitic screed, which eventually alleges in more detail that Roosevelt had Jewish ancestors. | | | Only four of the top 10 included any claim that Roosevelt had Jewish ancestry - the others were mainly stories where Franklin or Eleanor Roosevelt said or did something with respect to people of Jewish ancestry. | | | I also do not agree that Americans have abandoned their healthy dislike of Roosevelt, as the success of The Roosevelt Myth proves. |
