President Roosevelt was glad to hear from John Campbell Greenway, and tells him about a couple recent visits he has had from people. Roosevelt tells Greenway that he will not be able to vote for him in 1908, but mentions that he believes that Secretary of War William H. Taft will be the man to vote for. He would like for Greenway to come visit at the White House where he can meet Taft, “as well as many other fellows.”
