Cosmo says: Teddy Roosevelt vs Nikola Tesla would be like Superman vs Batman.
What do you think, Off-Topic'ers?
Which era of Teddy? This is relevant.

Assume each at his peak of awesome.

I have to pick between these two, when at their peak?
Oh man. ;_; This requires thought. Maybe bacon.
Did Roosevelt build an Atomic Robot? No? Tesla wins.

As much as I love , I'm afraid it would go down like this:

I have a building that can throw lightning at any point in the continental United States at any time with no warning.
Throw you into the sun.
But I can clone myself and others with...
Throw you into the sun.
But..
Faster than thought, and throw you into the sun.
Right.
Glad we're on the same team, Nikki!
*sigh* Me too.

The deciding factor, more even than their respective eras, is the venue. If they're in the wilderness, I know who I'm going to side with (much as it would pain me to do so). Anywhere with electrical currents or running water, however, and I gotta go with my boy Tesla.

Tesla was two years older than Teddy. Eras?
;-)
Roosevelt vs Tesla? Bah, Sam Clemens would go steampunk ninja on both their a**es.

Teddy. He can reduce a fearsome animal to a children's toy.
[plug]Have you folks tried Who Would Win? yet? It's like rules for what we do anyway!! [/plug]

Teddy Roosevelt got shot in the chest, through his superior knowledge of anatomy and hunting deduced that since he wasn't coughing up blood that meant he wasn't shot in the lung, and so proceeded to give a ninety minute presidential candidate speech, all the while his shirt becoming more and more soaked in his own blood.
Tesla, being a genius, would deduce the following: "Teddy Roosevelt is one hardcore crazy ass m~++$+&!~+%*, and his teeth would beat the s@@+ out of Gary Busey's teeth even though he won't be born for a few more decades. Ergo, I'm not EVEN messing with him."
And so Tesla runs, and Roosevelt eats a Tesla coil with those big pebbles in his mouth, all the time laughing with his face red as a beet, looking like he's straining out a Captain's Log, and telling stories about all this stuff he shot in Africa: demon elephants, kongomato bat people, mokele mbembes, you name it, he shot the damn thing.
Roosevelt shot the first chupacabras in Cuba.

Anyway what's up with all this interest in Tesla all of the sudden? I'm going to have to abstain because I don't know that much about him.
They're both dead. Who cares?
Nah, the Bull Moose reading his speech after being shot is a sign of stupidity, Heath, I have to take a point away from TR for that one.
Teddy Roosevelt's teeth rise from the underworld to eat your hyperbole, your strawmen, and your head for dessert.

Tesla made the teleportation ray to Barsoom, but he had to have Roosevelt come along to protect him from the tharks and banths and s+*@ while he tried to kidnap Dejah Thoris from Helium and make her his queen.
I think that pretty much sums it up.
They're both dead. Who cares?
This comment shows that you fail to see the point in this exercise..
My vote would go to Tesla, if he had the time and equipment.
Time's up, sparky.
Tesla because he has a really cool sounding name. Tesla sounds like a superhero or racing car, Roosevelt sounds like a sandwich.
TR was a badass. But Tesla had a death ray. You can't out-badass a death ray.
I'm going with Tesla. TR would be all, "Bully this" and "I shot that" but then Tesla would just evaporate him and it would be over. Some may claim that TR would just shoot first and ask questions never, but TR was also considered a gentleman of his time.
Come on, guys! Nikola outfitted Teddy! They were a monster-hunting, shoggoth-killing, Yellow Cult-busting SuperDuo!
Tesla! We need a mad scientist president.
Tesla, 'cause this.
Tesla. The Tesla/Teddy disparity is too great. Unless, are we talking about TEDDY BARBARIAN?
Tesla. As if another option existed...
Hell, it this point, we should be digging them both up and stitching their corpses together ala Fronkensteen the create the biggest bada** fighting science undead ever created... Undead Tesleveltbatman!
Quickly too! I hear the Joketwain and Riddlewilde are planning something fiendishly deadly for old Gothamtown this fortnight.
Or maybe I should quit snorting vampire glitter?
