Reflections on 1912, 1968, and the present era

Reflections on 1912, 1968, and the present era

Geoffrey Cowan examines the importance of primary elections in a number of twentieth-century presidential campaigns, highlighting the 1912 contest featuring Theodore Roosevelt. Cowan challenges some of the assumptions surrounding Roosevelt’s campaign, asserting that Roosevelt may have been led to run by his jealousy towards Robert M. La Follette of Wisconsin and by his need for a fight, and not just his feelings of betrayal towards President William H. Taft. Cowan also demonstrates that Roosevelt was skeptical about embracing the primary system for choosing party nominees until he used the system to his advantage in 1912. Cowan concludes his piece by examining how the primary system affected the 2016 presidential campaign.

Three photographs, a political cartoon, and two 2016 campaign advertisements supplement the text.
