Who would have won a Roosevelt-Willkie debate?

[Kingpoleon]

The one who was willing to debate and not in a wheelchair.

Being in a wheelchair wouldn't have been a problem since TV didn't exist (which kind of makes you regret these days, tbh).

TV existed... It was becoming pretty widespread by the late 1930s.

Roosevelt is a great orator, I don't know who Wilkie is.

You've been a poster here for almost 4 years and still don't know the names of all major party candidates? That's inexcusable.

Pretty much. Any poster should be able to summarize every election.

1860: Lincoln ran on opposition to outlawing abortion, Douglas ran on state popular votes on it, Bell ran as a moderate hero, and Breckinridge was staunchly pro life to the point of secession?

y/y?

I'm not sure what you mean by "pretty widespread", but didn't it reach a majority of households only in the 1960s?

The pictures of the debates in newspapers alone would probably be pretty memorable.
