 FACT: In the pilot episode, Sam tells Mallorys class that the  Roosevelt room is named after Franklin D Roosevelt. Mallory later  corrects him stating that it is named after Theodore Roosevelt and  pointing out the painting over the fireplace. In fact, while  originally named for Teddy, Richard Nixon dedicated it to both  Roosevelts, and the painting over the fireplace changes depending  which party is in office, Teddy for the Republicans, FDR for the  Democrats. This means that with Bartlet in office it should probably  have been FDRs painting hanging there, although Bill Clinton did  decide to keep Teddys painting in place as he preferred it.
