Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to George W. Perkins
Theodore Roosevelt acknowledges that George W. Perkins would like Roosevelt to “go as Vice-President on a Progressive ticket” with Woodrow Wilson as President. While Roosevelt sees the attractiveness of the proposition, he declines. However, he jokes that if they will substitute Wilson for his fiancée, Edith Bolling Galt, he will consider the matter.
