Individual:
Ascended to the presidency through the death of William McKinley. Won the
1904 election over Alton B. Parker by a popular vote of 7,628,461 to
5,084,223 and an electoral vote of 336 to 140. Nickname "Teddy"; a cartoon
of Roosevelt in The Washington Post depicting the tenderhearted President
refusing to shoot a bear cub inspiring the "teddy bear". Became the first
American to receive the Nobel Piece Prize. Made another bid for the high
office in 1912, because he was dissatisfied with William Taft's performance.
