西奥多·罗斯福（英语：Theodore Roosevelt，1858.10.27—1919.1.6），又译狄奥多·罗斯福，人称老罗斯福，昵称泰迪（Teddy），美国军事家、政治家、外交家，第26任美国总统。曾任美国海军部副部长，参与美西战争，并在古巴的圣地亚哥战役中战功卓越，获得圣胡安山英雄的称号，1900年当选副总统。1901年总统威廉·麦金莱被无政府主义者刺杀身亡，他继任成为美国总统，时年42岁，是美国历史上最年轻的在任总统。他的独特个性和改革主义政策，使他成为美国历史上最伟大的总统之一。
西奥多·罗斯福在总统任期内，对国内的主要贡献是建立资源保护政策，保护了森林、矿物、石油等资源；建立公平交易法案，推动劳工与资本家和解。对外奉行门罗主义，实行扩张政策，建设强大军队，干涉美洲事务。罗斯福因成功地调停了日俄战争，获得1906年的诺贝尔和平奖，是第一个获得此奖项的美国人。1908年卸任后，西奥多·罗斯福与共和党意见有分歧，于是脱党，代表进步党参选总统，试图东山再起；但败于美国民主党的候选人伍德罗·威尔逊，从此退出政坛。
西奥多·罗斯福的远房堂侄富兰克林·罗斯福日后也当选为美国总统，故在中文环境里常称富兰克林·罗斯福为“小罗斯福”。2006年6月26日，他再次成为《时代》周刊的封面人物。西奥多·罗斯福被美国的权威期刊《大西洋月刊》评为影响美国的100位人物第15名。
Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt was the 26th President of America. He served for two terms between 1901 and 1909. He was born in 1858 in New York City. He was mostly home schooled because of ill health as a child. He graduated from Harvard (where he was a boxing champion) and in 1880 entered law school. He dropped out a year later to enter politics. He is often ranked as the greatest ever U.S. President.
During the Spanish-American War, Roosevelt was lieutenant 1 colonel of the Rough Rider Regiment 2, which he led on a charge at the battle of San Juan. His war-hero status prompted New York Republicans to nominate him as Governor to draw attention away from the state’s scandals. Roosevelt won the election and served with distinction for two years.
Roosevelt became Vice 3 President in March 1901. Six months later, with the assassination 4 of President McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, not quite 43, became the youngest President in the nation's history. He brought new excitement and power to the Presidency 5 as he vigorously led Congress and the American public toward progressive reforms and a strong foreign policy.
As President, Roosevelt believed that the Government should play a greater role in the economy. He steered 6 the U.S. more actively 7 into world politics. He liked to quote a favorite proverb, "Speak softly and carry a big stick, and you will go far." He won the Nobel Peace Prize for mediating 8 the Russo-Japanese War. Some of his biggest achievements were in conserving 9 America’s national parks. He died in 1919 aged 10 60.
