Theodore Roosevelt's victory in the Republican National Convention was shocking, if not especially so due to Taft's heart problems. His administration brought America into the Great War, prompting a faction of Republicans led by Robert LaFollette to break away and advocate a more isolationist path, but its Progressive roots made it quite popular among the workers, ensuring it won a second term. By the time the war begun to develop into a bloody quagmire, however, Roosevelt was a dying shell, his administration propped up by his daughter Alice.Okay, here we go:
