Theodore Roosevelt

Both Rooseveltâ??s Big Stick Policy and Wilsonâ??s Missionary Diplomacy were centered around Latin Americaâ??s relationship with the United States and were addendums to the Monroe Doctrine. However, Rooseveltâ??s policy was based on the idea of peaceful negotiations while threatening military action. While it was used in both domestic miner strikers and in dealing with Asia, Roosevelt used it primarily in Latin America especially in the case of the Panama Canal. He used it in conjunction with the Roosevelt Corollary. Meanwhile, Wilsonâ??s Missionary Diplomacy stated that the Wilson administration would recognize no Latin American governments that were hostile to American interests.

"Rough Riders" was the nickname of the 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry Regiment.

IJN Torpedo Boat Destroyers went into Port Arthur and launched a night time torpedo attack against the anchored Russian battleships in February 1904.

Social Darwinism is the political theory that believes that competition and struggle improves the economic realm by allowing unrestrained and ruthless competition. Roosevelt was a Darwinist when it came to internal affairs. He firmly believed that there was constant competition between America and the other countries.

San Juan Hill , Cuba .

Theodore Roosevelt resigned his post as Assistant Secretary of the Navy and helped form the 1st US Volunteer Cavalry, known commonly as the "Rough Riders," in 1898 after the outset of the Spanish-American War. After forming the regiment and training the men, he got his unit into battle at the Battle of San Juan Hill, in which the Rough Riders charged Kettle Hill on the San Juan Heights near Santiago, Cuba on July 1, 1898. TR was the Lieutenant Colonel of the outfit, second in command to Colonel Leonard Wood.

Interestingly, the 1st Volunteer Cavalry had to leave its horses in Florida to make it to the war at all; the troop transports were completely full and did not have room for the entire unit even without the horses and cavalry accoutrements.

For leading the charge on Kettle Hill, Theodore Roosevelt got plenty of good press back home, which helped him in his subsequent bid for Governor of New York, then shortly thereafter, for Vice President of the United States. Roosevelt was posthumously awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor by President Bill Clinton.

Thedore Roosevelt is associated with this phrase. The idea of big stick diplomacy is to negotiate from strength, making it clear that, if necessary, mililitary action is a possibility. screw you all you condescending reprobates

I believe it was President Wilson.

Theodore Roosevelt's "Big Ditch" is the Panama Canal, which is in ... you guessed it ... Panama!

Roosevelt felt that it was the responsibility of the United States to police the other countries into peace. He used the "big stick" (U.S. military) as a way of stabilizing order primarily in North American and East coast European countries.

(I learned this in my junior year of high school...it's been a while but I believe this to be accurate.)

Boleslaw Raczkiewicz pointed by last legally elected president Ignacy Moscicki( polish president may point the successor in case of war),

Boleslaw Raczkiewicz was called Poland's President on the Exile and held the office in London, UK.

I remember his as a flawed character. Instead of waiting until 1916 for the presidential nomination, he decided to run against the Republican incumbent in 1912, splitting the vote and giving the election to Wilson. Next he wrecked his health by going on a poorly planned exploring trip in the Amazon jungle. He pushed his son, Quentin, into becoming a military pilot and losing his life in WW I.

Yes, no, mabye so!

His plan was to create more jobs for America, this way, it would giver workers money to pay the government, epecially in private practice (e.g. private doctors, lawyers, etc.). This is actually a good idea to get us out of our depression.

Hope it helped!

Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the President of the United States on December 7, 1941 the date of the Pearl Harbour attack.

He didn't. The US stayed out of the war for two years, but supplied Britain, thus getting itself out of the after=effects of the Great Depression, and gaining control of British-owned industries in the US from the proceeds.

He believed that the federal government should be eliminated and that it was stupid. this is a wrong answer.

the facts are that Theodore Roosevelt worked to control business and limit it's size. Because of the legislation pasted in the very early 1900's we have regulations today, to protect how our food, water and limit dangerous/hazardous products or be mislead by false advertising of products being put on the market today. he was known as the trust buster.

No. He signed 5 national parks into law and set aside 150 million acres of forest reserves, but did not create the National Park Service. He did create the U.S. Forest Service, an agency whose mission is different. The NPS was signed into law in 1916, 7 years after TR left office.

The Progressive Movement was an effort to cure many of the ills of American society that had developed during the great spurt of industrial growth in the last quarter of the 19th century. The frontier had been tamed, great cities and businesses developed, and an overseas empire established, but not all citizens shared in the new wealth, prestige, and optimism.

Roosevelt's intervention emphasized America's growing role in world affairs.

He expanded the national park system and supported government policies that managed natural resources.

leader of the Republican Party and of the Progressive Movement. He became the youngest President in United States history at the age of 42. He served in many roles including Governor of New York, historian, naturalist, explorer, author, and soldier. Roosevelt is most famous for his personality: his energy, his vast range of interests and achievements, his model of masculinity, and his "cowboy" persona. His last name, often mispronounced, is, per Roosevelt, "pronounced as if it were spelled 'Rosavelt.' That is in three syllables. The first syllable as if it was 'Rose.'"[2][3][4] As Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Navy, he prepared for and advocated war with Spain in 1898. He organized and helped command the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment, the Rough Riders, during the Spanish-American War. Returning to New York as a war hero, he was elected Republican governor in 1899. He was a professional historian, a lawyer, a naturalist and explorer of the Amazon Basin; his 35 books include works on outdoor life, natural history, the American frontier, political history, naval history, and his autobiography.[5] In 1901, as Vice President, Roosevelt succeeded President William McKinley after McKinley's assassination. He is the youngest person ever to become President (John F. Kennedy is the youngest elected President). Roosevelt was a Progressive reformer who sought to move the dominant Republican Party into the Progressive camp. He distrusted wealthy businessmen and dissolved 40 monopolistic corporations as a "trust buster". He was clear, however, to show that he did not disagree with trusts and capitalism in principle but was only against their corrupt, illegal practices. His "Square Deal" promised a fair shake for both the average citizen (through regulation of railroad rates and pure food and drugs) and the businessmen. As an outdoorsman, he promoted the conservation movement, emphasizing efficient use of natural resources. After 1906 he attacked big business and suggested the courts were biased against labor unions. In 1910, he broke with his friend and anointed successor William Howard Taft, but lost the Republican nomination to Taft and ran in the 1912 election on his own one-time Bull Moose ticket. Roosevelt lost but pulled so many Progressives out of the Republican Party that Democrat Woodrow Wilson won in 1912, and the conservative faction took control of the Republican Party for the next two decades. Roosevelt understood the strategic significance of the Panama Canal, and negotiated for the U.S. to take control of its construction in 1904; he felt that the Canal's completion was his most important and historically significant international achievement. He was the first American to be awarded the Nobel Prize, winning its Peace Prize in 1906, for negotiating the peace in the Russo-Japanese War. Historian Thomas Bailey, who disagreed with Roosevelt's policies, nevertheless concluded, "Roosevelt was a great personality, a great activist, a great preacher of the moralities, a great controversialist, a great showman. He dominated his era as he dominated conversations....the masses loved him; he proved to be a great popular idol and a great vote getter."[6] His image stands alongside Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln on Mount Rushmore. Surveys of scholars have consistently ranked him from #3 to #7 on the list of greatest American presidents

It was called a Splendid Little War because when the USS Maine was destroyed the US went to war with Spain. The war only lasted 100 days and only 460 soldiers were killed.. they gained Guam, Puerto Rico, the Phillipines, and Cuba. It was a short war and the US gained a lot of territory and then they became a World Power.

U.S. victory in Cuba came so quickly and easily.
