John D Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan along with a few other rich guys paid and helped Campaign to get Teddy on the McKinley ticket as VP. Mainly because Teddy was so anti business (like Obama) that they wanted him out of the way. IN those days if you were VP it was like being banished off the face of the earth.

Until McKinley was assassinated. The Roosevelt became President to the worse nightmares of the wealthy.

How did the democrats win the 1912 election?

The Democrats won the 1912 election due to a split within the Republican Party. Former President Theodore Roosevelt ran as a third-party candidate for the Progressive Party, splitting the Republican vote. This division allowed Democrat Woodrow Wilson to secure a victory and become the 28th President of the United States.

Why did Theodore claim that he took panama?

Former President Theodore Roosevelt actually said "I am interested in the Panama Canal because I started it", in a speech at UC Berkeley in 1911. It has never been proved but it is widely believed that he was very much involved in the 1903 secession of the Province of Panama from Colombia, which he had always denied while President. This paved the way for the founding of the Republic of Panama as well as the Hay/Bunau-Varilla treaty that allowed the US to build the Panama Canal and acquire sovereign rights to the Canal Zone. Bunau-Varilla was a Frenchman, not a Panamanian, and he gave the USA everything they wanted at the expense of the newly fledged Republic. Whether he was in league with Roosevelt and Hay was also always denied but the swiftness of support from the US Navy to protect Panama from Colombian reprisals makes these denials suspect.

Has Barack Obama paved his way for other groups or inventors or thinkers?

I don't think President Obama paved the way, but as America's first black president, he has certainly been a role model and a source of inspiration for many young people, especially young people of color, as well as those who are growing up in poverty who want to believe they can become something important someday. Barack Obama came from a very inauspicious beginning (son of a single mom, with a dad who abandoned the family, a biracial child, a family without much money); and yet he was able to grow up to become president. So in that regard, he has paved the way for some young people to consider what is possible for them in life. However, as far as inventors, he does not have a science background, nor a background in medicine or medical research. But it should be noted that he has provided a source of ideas and scholarly critique for political scientists and theorists: many books, articles, essays, and studies have been written about his candidacy, his campaigns, and his time as president.
