John Campbell Greenway advises Theodore Roosevelt on how he ought to proceed in regard to his possible candidacy for president. If Roosevelt is to run again “it must be at the earnest entreaty of the people as a whole.” Greenway suggests that Roosevelt could be the Progressive and Republican nominee with adroit political maneuvering. He does not think that Roosevelt should accept a nomination from only a single party.
