William H. Taft (R) Was not very aggressive as President. Angered many Republicans and Progressives while President. Publicly fights with T.R. Republican Convention chaos.

Taft’s 1912 Platform Defend his program of higher tariffs Continue to break up Trusts. Push for Federal Income Tax and Direct Election of Senators.

Woodrow Wilson (D) Relatively unknown. College professor and Former Governor of New Jersey. Was nominated after 46 th ballot at the Democratic Convention. “New Freedom”

Wilson’s 1912 Platform Bank reform. Reduce Tariffs. Break up trusts to help small businesses. More government help to Farmers and Laborers. Be a strong leader.

Theodore Roosevelt (Bull Moose) 26 th President. Held two terms from Very popular President. Republican with progressive ideas. Shot during campaign.

T.R’s 1912 Platform “New Nationalism” stressed a liberal reform policy. Direct Election of Senators. (17 th Amendment) States should have referendum, recall, and initiative. Women suffrage. (19 th Amendment) Labor reform.

Eugene V. Debs (Socialist) Former ARU leader. Considered a Radical. PLATFORM Pushes for Government ownership of Railroads and Banks Labor and Farm reform.

1912 Campaign issues Who to vote for?????? Each candidate considers themselves “Progressive”. Taft had angered many Progressives during his presidency. Wilson is a very good speaker, starts gaining a good following – not quite as radical as T.R.
