Here are three more small single-sheet fold books in my Presidential Wisdom series I first posted about yesterday. This probably makes the series complete, although I may add one or two more if I come across more perfect presidential quotes.
Again, each book is folded from a single sheet of cream 8 1/2" x 11" card stock using the snake fold. This accordion fold gives each book 12 pages for text, photos and/or end papers. For the covers, I used textured card stock and made a wrapper with the title.
The three presidents and their quotations are:
Every man is equally entitled to protection by law; but when the laws undertake to add...artificial distinctions, to grant titles, gratuities, and exclusive privileges, to make the rich richer and the potent more powerful, the humble members of society--the farmers, mechanics, and laborers--who have neither the time nor the means of securing like favors to themselves, have a right to complain of the injustice of their government. ~President Andrew Jackson, 1832.
I again recommend a law prohibiting all corporations from contributing to the campaign expenses of any party.... Let individuals contribute as they desire; but let us prohibit in effective fashion all corporations from making contributions for any political purpose, directly or indirectly. -~President Theodore Roosevelt, Republican, 1906
It was natural and perhaps human that the privileged princes of these new economic dynasties, thirsting for power, reached out for control over government itself. They created a new despotism and wrapped it in the robes of legal sanction. In its service new mercenaries sought to regiment the people, their labor, and their property. And as a result the average man once more confronts the problem that faced the Minute Man.~ President Franklin D. Roosevelt
I've not included new photos here since these three little books look just like the other ones in the series.

One has to wonder where Teddy's Republicans took a wrong turn!
