vice Commision and then becoming
assistnat Secretary of the Navy for Pres-
ident Mckinley and then when the Span-
ish-American War broke out he retired
and became known as the leader of the
Rough Riders bravely leading his
troupe at the battle of San Juan Hill.
Gaining popularity he was elected Gov-
erner. And during that time he gained
his power to run for president.
TEDDY was appointed as th presi-
dent of United States in 1901 after
Mckinley died of gunshot wounds and
Teddy at the time was vice president. As
president Teddy expressed the role of
the president as the steward of the
people and anything the public desired
he would make happen unless it was
unconstitutional. However he greatly
broadened the use of the executive
power as the president and at times
was thought by critics to be a tyrant
Trust Buster. As president his widely
famous saying speak softly and carry
a big stick.. referred to his broad
Foregin Policy as his Great White flee
of ships took a tour around the world
showing the U.S as a powerful force.
His love for nature got him contribut-
ing greatly to national parks and con-
servation, reserved to the public and
fostered great irrigation projects. He
ran again for president but was shot in
the chest by a fanatic, yet he continued
speaking! He recovered soon after! But
because of complications of that wound
he died in 1919. And heres a famous
quote by him No man has had a happi-
er life than I have led; a happier life in
every way.
