"I do not want to be a professional politician."
"The joy of life is to be used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one."
About Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919)
26th US President (1901-1909), Progressive trust-buster, conservation pioneer, and the youngest person to assume the presidency (after McKinley's assassination). Closely associated with William Howard Taft (his hand-picked successor and later 1912 election rival) and Gifford Pinchot (his Forest Service chief and conservation co-architect). For an intellectual contrast, see J.P. Morgan, financier and architect of Northern Securities (1837-1913) — TR's 1902 antitrust suit against Morgan's Northern Securities railroad combination was the founding act of progressive antitrust enforcement. Their famous 1902 White House meeting — where Morgan reportedly said 'send your man to my man' and TR refused — is the canonical moment of presidential authority asserting over private financial power.
