1912



**1912**

In 1912 Theodore Roosevelt ran against Hiram Johnson for presidency. Theodore Roosevelt was for the Progessive Republican Party which became nicknamed as the Bull Moose Party because of TR's reference of a bull moose and his health. Then on October 14, Roosevelt was shot in the neck during a speech in Milwaukee, but for an hour and thirty minutes he continued his speech in saying that it takes more than a bulliet, "to kill a Bull Moose".
