Today's lesson on the Liberal Legacy of Teddy Roosevelt:


In one of the first Democratic Presidential debates, Bernie Sanders invoked Teddy Roosevelt. This was news because it’s curious that the most left leaning Democratic Presidential candidate in many years mentioned in a positive way a past Republican President, who by the way was very rich. However Sanders wasn’t the only Democrat that over the years praised the legacy of Teddy Roosevelt; Senator Elizabeth Warren, Vice President Al Gore, President Barack Obama and Bill Clinton did it too among many others. The question is, are Democrats right in assuming the legacy of Teddy Roosevelt and praising his policies? The answer is yes. Teddy Roosevelt was no liberal; however his legacy contributed undoubtedly for the construction and formation of Modern Liberalism.

The Presidency and political activity of Teddy Roosevelt, to be better analyzed must be placed in a context, which is the the end of the gilded age period: a period of fast economic growth, industrialization, urbanization, major railroad construction and the rise of the big business. On the other side this period was marked by political corruption in urban areas, insecurity in the workplace, rising power of monopolies, trusts that used their market position to destroy competitors, and great social instability with riots and violent strikes. To redress some of the issues and problems that had surge in the end of the XIX century, progressives emerged. Progressives at the time did not want to destroy big companies and go back to a rural economy composed mainly by small businesses; instead, they wanted to fix some of the excessive imbalances arising from the industrial capitalism of the XIX century. Above all, progressives believed that the Federal government could be a tool to enable these reforms, something that was truly new in a time that the government intervened as little as possible.

With the assassination in 1901 of President McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, a progressive who was his vice-president took over the presidency and in that moment, progressivism ceased to be a set of ideas defended mainly by college educated people, muckraking journalists, intellectuals, and businessmen in urban areas to be a national discussion.

The fact that progressive ideas were defended and promoted by a charismatic and energetic President like Teddy Roosevelt was very important because it put progressivism in the spotlight of American Politics. In a time where there was a consensus that the government shouldn’t have public policies that could correct social injustice, the presidency of Teddy Roosevelt served above all to contradict this idea. He became a bully pulpit (in his own words) of a serious of values and ideas that still influence modern American presidency.

Polls always show voters "trust" Republicans on the economy, knowing Republicans are cheapskates in raising funds, i.e. levying taxes, that help other people than them. This as we've learned doesn't necessarily translate into winning elections.

I'm sure it was fear. He's a lying pussy who claims conservatives on JPP said they were going to kill people. When asked to show the evidence he turned into a little bitch.
