Venustiano Carranza
President Woodrow Wilson appeased the Bull Moose Progressives by adopting several of their key reforms, particularly through his New Freedom agenda. He pushed for antitrust legislation, the establishment of the Federal Reserve System, and regulatory measures that addressed issues like tariffs and banking.

Additionally, his commitment to social justice and labor rights further reinforced his appeal to this group.

He implemented policies that favored industrialization and foreign investment, often at the expense of the land reforms and social justice initiatives that Juárez championed. Díaz's regime, marked by authoritarianism, undermined many of the democratic principles and reforms established by Juárez, leading to increased inequality and social unrest. Ultimately, Díaz's focus on stability and control resulted in a departure from Juárez's reformist legacy.
