Best Answer

This amendment was proposed before Roosevelt was nominated to run for President. New York where he was governor , ratified it 9 days after it was proposed. If Roosevelt was against it, he was not an effective opponent of it. The amendment had little opposition, so if he was against it at all, I suspect he kept quiet about his objection.
