If you ask politicians who have had a great influence on the situation in the modern world, most people will think of Roosevelt, Churchill, Stalin, ** and several other figures.
Among them, Roosevelt's leadership made the United States of America the number one power in the world and established the United States' position in the international arena.
Churchill led the people out of the dark hour and saved his country in the face of a crisis in Britain.
After Stalin became the head of state, he led the people to industrialize the entire Soviet Union in a very short time.
Needless to say, together with many revolutionary ancestors, he has completed the mission of the times to save the Chinese nation and make China gradually and stably walk on the road to becoming a strong country!
But what many people don't know is that three of these four great men were "disabled".
So, what kind of special experiences do these three "disabled" world greats have?
Roosevelt was born into a "political family" - the Roosevelt family, which had a famous American ** before Franklin, who fought the battle against the American trusts and left a strong mark in history.
And Franklin D. Roosevelt happened to have a close blood relationship with this senior. As a child, Roosevelt grew up in a wealthy family, so he also received a good education from an early age.
Once, Roosevelt's father joked: Franklin is such a good child since he was a child, maybe he will become the best in the United States one day.
But the mother Draenor did not want her son to embark on the path of politics. Hearing what her husband said, the wife repeatedly denied it and said that she would never want her son to participate**.
Whatever the mother's wishes, however, when Franklin D. Roosevelt had sufficient social experience and learning, he was still in 1910Democratsofficially entered the United States**.
Roosevelt's mother, who heard the news, was very disappointed, but as time went on, she slowly accepted her son's decision.
In 1913, Franklin D. Roosevelt was appointed assistant to the Navy by Wilson.
In 1919, Franklin had been campaigning for Wilson's plan for the League of Nations, which led to a losing campaign in 1920.
After losing the campaign, Roosevelt returned to his position as a lawyer and continued to earn money to support his family
In 1921, Roosevelt took his wife and children on vacation to Campobello, a scenic island where they forgot about the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoyed the joy of the family.
August 10 was a sunny day, and seeing this rare good weather, Roosevelt proposed to the family to sail, and his wife said yes, and the children were excited.
When everything was ready, they were paddling on the island's lakes, and the children were vying to get behind the wheel, and they played from morning till night until the sun went down and returned satisfied.
On the way back, they saw a slight fire in a forest not far away.
Faced with this situation, Franklin D. Roosevelt immediately docked the ship nearby and immediately prepared to go to the fire to participate in the rescue operation.
The wife was very worried when she saw that her husband was going to participate in the rescue operation, but Roosevelt held her hand tightly and affectionately said that he would be fine.
Despite the reluctance of the wife, seeing the firm eyes of her husband, she could only agree with Franklin Roosevelt's decision. Before leaving, his wife told him to be careful!
Roosevelt then went to the wildfire site to participate in the operation, and through the efforts of many rescuers, the accidental fire was finally extinguished.
And Roosevelt because of his participation in the rescue, when he came back, he was dirty everywhere, looking a little "sloppy", in view of his own embarrassed appearance, Roosevelt proposed to go swimming in the lake to wash off the dirt on his body.
Listening to his advice, the children all shouted with joy and said:Swim!Swim!
So, the Roosevelts went to the waters of Campobello Island for their last project of the day.
Roosevelt was so happy that he had just experienced a successful rescue operation that he swam in the lake with his children.
When they had had their fill, Roosevelt led the children back to the station.
But shortly after returning home, Franklin D. Roosevelt suddenly shivered, and goosebumps followed.
The wife looked at her husband's strange reaction and noticed that something was wrong, so she asked him if he had a cold
Roosevelt repliedI don't want to catch a cold, I have to ** go and warm up for a while!
Hearing her husband's words, Roosevelt's wife told him to hurry back to the house to rest.
The next day, the wife went into the house to check on her husband's condition and found that his condition had worsened rather than improved.
So, Roosevelt's wife quickly called a doctor, but at that time, her husband's condition was very critical, and the doctor on the island could not do anything, so he suggested that Anna seek another doctor.
In desperation, Roosevelt's wife had no choice but to go to the mainland and find a famous doctor to treat Franklin!
After careful diagnosis by doctors, he believed that Roosevelt's condition was caused by a blood clot in his spine and advised Anna to give her husband a careful massage every day. Only then can the body absorb this blood clot.
And this doctor's method had a certain effect at first, and Roosevelt's condition gradually improved.
However, at the end of August of the same year, Roosevelt's condition deteriorated and he was diagnosed with polio.
Roosevelt was shocked by the sudden news of the inspection, and he fell into a long state of despair.
Because there is no medicine for this disease, which means that he may have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
Looking at Franklin's stunned expression, the wife could only hold back the pain in her heart and try to comfort her husband.
Soon after, Roosevelt, accompanied by his family, gradually came out of that dark time.
In 1932, Franklin participated in the election of the United States, and a year later defeated Hoover to become the new American**.
After having the most powerful power, Roosevelt began to implement the famous Roosevelt New Deal, led the people out of the economic crisis quickly, and laid the material foundation for the United States to win World War II in the future!
Subsequently,Roosevelt relied on these accumulated popularity, and became a legend of the United States for three consecutive terms!
This is Roosevelt** in a wheelchair, who led the American people to victory with his strong will!
And at the same time, there is another leader in the world, and he is also a "physically flawed" head of state, and this person is Churchill.
When it comes to Churchill, everyone's first impression is that he was proud to have a cigar in his mouth all day long.
But what many people don't know is that such a British hero did not have a tooth of his own in his mouth, but was fitted with a pair of dentures!
Next, let's take a look at Churchill's legend!
Churchill, like Roosevelt, was born into an aristocratic family, and his grandfather, the Duke of Marlborough, became governor of Ireland two years after his birth.
As a son of aristocrats, he followed his family's rise to Ireland, where he spent three years of a happy childhood.
As Churchill grew older, the future British prime minister was of school-appropriate age.
So his parents began to arrange family education for Churchill, and he learned a lot from his daily heavy schoolwork.
When the Duke of Marlborough was deposed in 1880 for political reasons, Churchill's family was plunged into darkness.
Despite the changes in his family, his parents sent Churchill to a good local school when he was seven years old for the sake Xi of his future.
Churchill was also subject to strict management in a good school, and he lived every day in a complaining and hard-working Xi.
After 1888, Churchill continued his Xi studies at a royal academy.
Two years later, he began to lose his teeth due to physical reasons, and the family spent a huge amount of medical expenses every year to save the family's future in order to cure the child's oral disease.
Although the parents tried their best to cure Churchill's dental disease, life and death were determined, and no matter how hard they tried, they still did not cure the child's dental disease.
The long-term "disease" also caused Churchill to lose all his teeth in his 20s.
Churchill, who had no teeth to hold the door, made it "leak" as soon as he spoke, in order to save himself from this".Air leakage"Sick, the family can only equip him with a set of dentures.
Churchill's first dentures were made of rubber and were uncomfortable to wear.
So much so that later, for convenience, he always put it in his pocket when it was unnecessary, and sometimes accidentally crushed this denture for "leaky air"!
Churchill was impressed by the discomfort of wearing dentures, and later, as his life improved, he also made a few slightly decent dentures for himself, but none of them were satisfactory!
After the outbreak of World War II, Churchill became the head of state of Britain, and his words and deeds represented the image of Britain, and for the dignity of the country and the needs of his own work, he also made up his mind to start looking for good dentists throughout the country!
However, although there are many dentists in the UK, good dentists are very rare!
After a tireless search, Churchill finally found a dentist he liked, and his name was Fisch.
After hearing Churchill's request, in order to cure his leakage, Fisch specially customized a pair of "Churchill dentures" according to Churchill's oral condition.
After receiving this satisfactory denture, Churchill expressed his satisfaction, and he finally cured the "air leakage" disease that had plagued him for a long time!
Since then, a confident British Prime Minister has begun to lead the people of LinkedIn to fight hard and finally win World War II.
After the end of the war, he wore this pair of dentures and launched the famous Iron Curtain speech in his sharp language, which opened the Cold War era!
This is the story of Churchill and his dentures.
And in Europe at that time, in addition to this politician, there was also a great socialist leader, who also had some physical defects, and this person was Stalin!
When it comes to Stalin, everyone is very familiar with it, especially the older generation, who has a deep memory of the former Soviet leader.
After Lenin's death, this famous communist leader quickly industrialized the Soviet Union in a very short period of time, and later led the Soviet people to win the victory of the Great Patriotic War, so that the former Soviet Union established an important position in the world!
But what people didn't expect was that there was something wrong with the famous communist leader's right hand!
Stalin was born into a family of serfs near Gori, and it was not until 1864 that his father, Vesali, was freed from the confines of serfdom.
After gaining his freedom, Vesalien worked in a tanner's shop, where he met and married Stalin's mother.
Soon after, the wife gave birth to four children, but the first three of the four children died tragically!And this surviving child was Stalin, who was very fond of this only child.
But as his father, Vesali, he has a problem with alcoholism, and he gets drunk all day long and beats people at every turn.
In this way, when he was a teenager, Stalin not only did not feel the love from Vesali, but also often suffered his father's domestic violence with his mother!
This bad experience, combined with chronic nutritional deprivation, led to some problems in Stalin's right hand.
In 1888, Stalin's mother sent her son to a parochial primary school in Gori for Xi future, hoping that his son would become an "honorable priest."
Regarding his wife's actions, her husband Vesali not only did not help the mother and daughter, but also ridiculed his wife from time to time
"Do you want my son to be an archbishop?It's just wishful thinking, I'm a shoemaker, and he'll only be able to do the same job in the future!”Faced with her husband's accusations, Stalin's mother was unmoved and still sent her son to a church school to Xi.
Stalin, as a son, did not live up to his mother's hopes, graduating from primary school with honors and entering the Tbilisi Orthodox Secondary School.
During his time in secondary school, he continued to study hard and Xi, and here he received the first ideas of the revolution.
In 1898, Stalin joined the ** Social Democratic Labour Party and embarked on the road of revolution.
In 1906 he married Svarnize, who soon after gave birth to a son, Yakov, to Stalin.
Stalin was overjoyed at the birth of this new life, but unfortunately it was not long before Svardze died
The death of his wife plunged Stalin into great grief, and at the funeral he once said:
"This man has softened my hard-hearted heart. She's dead, and the last bit of warmth I have for the whole of humanity is dying with her!”With the development of the revolutionary cause, Stalin became the head of state of the Soviet Union, and in order to accelerate the economic development of the Soviet Union, he quickly made the Soviet Union a world power through the means of planned economy. And after the outbreak of World War II, he led the people to win the victory in the Great Patriotic War, which greatly improved the international status of the Soviet Union!
But no matter what Stalin's exploits were, it could not hide the flaws of his right hand.
Among them, Shostakovich, who had met Stalin, said in his memoirs:
He is an ordinary man with a slight red hair, a whole face covered in pockmarks, his right hand is obviously much smaller than his left, and in his conversations with him, he always hides the defects of this body!However, when I read this passage, I was still puzzled, because in the documentary I saw, I did not find anything strange about Stalin's right hand!
Perhaps this man's memoirs are inauthentic, but Khrushchev's son-in-law also recounted the same events in his memoirs.
That's why people have to believe it!
These three great men lived in the same era, they were the pride of their respective countries, and they used their wisdom to lead the people to success, among which Roosevelt used the New Deal to lead the American people out of the economic crisis and build a modern American world governance order, although he was a disabled person but still a "hero" of the United States.
Churchill even saved Britain in World War II when the edifice was about to collapse, although he had a pair of dentures and himself had the so-called "leakage" problem, but this did not affect his position in British history in the slightest!
Stalin's greatest achievement was to help the Soviet Union quickly industrialize, leading the people to defeat the frantic attack of the German fascist forces and win World War II. Although there was something wrong with his right hand, he was still a "national hero" in the hearts of the Soviet people.
The lives of these three great men inadvertently reminded me of a line from the famous movie "Pearl Harbor", played by Roosevelt:
"When my legs were good, when you didn't know me, when I was strong, proud, arrogant, I was always thinking, why did God put me in a wheelchair, but when I saw failure in the eyes of my own people, it was in your eyes at this moment that I understood why He put me in a wheelchair, and in this moment we need to understand who we are, whether we will never give up or give in."
