As for traits, I think it's ironic that he's depicted as a peaceful builder when in reality he is remembered best as a wartime president.

As far as his health, check out Kenneth Branagh's depiction on the Home Box Office original film, "Warm Springs." He wasn't always a broken-down old man like he was at Yalta. Branagh's Roosevelt, pre-presidential, has polio but definitely is a hearty cat and I have no doubt the depiction is accurate. It takes some vigor to run for president during the Depression.
