Theodore Roosevelt has been discouraged by the Republican and Democratic parties. The foreign policy of President Wilson and Secretary of State Bryan has been the worst since James Buchanan was president. Roosevelt discussed stopping war in his recent book, America and the World War. To stop “international wickedness,” decent men must be “able and ready to use force in support of righteousness.”
