HINT: He is a well-known American depicted on a foreign stamp.

Alright Larry, Do we get a 2nd hint? I couldn't come up with anything and I used even google. Is it a play on words or spelling regarding the nickname? |

I have no clue what the answer is, but I just wanted to say that you are the first person I ever met that could make up a question that generates ZERO hits in Google. Very impressive!

It's not a nickname.
POOZEBEAT = ROOSEVELT
in Greek. Except the "A" isn't really an "A" but a Greek character without the bar. (Was never a frat boy so don't know my Greek letters!) The O's and the T and the E's match.
Thanks Bob, but you really need a close up to see POOZEBEAT under the photo.

OK, by deduction, that "A" thing must be lambda.

 I get it now. Thanks. lamda, lamda, lamda=nerds  Sorry I caught Revenge of the Nerds last weekend. I usually prefer the term "geek" as in the geek will inherit the earth. I also was not a frat boy or college boy for that matter, moreso the school of hard knocks or lucky breaks.  |
