In the 1912 election the republicans were split up between taft and rosevelt and that made the repulican party weaker so it basically guarenteed wilson the democratic party the win.
It Gets Nasty- Taft called t.r an egotist and in return t.r called a fat head with a geunie pig brain and then wilson said let the enemy destroy themselves.
Wilsons- New freedom
Tafts- Conservation
Rosevelt-Progressivism
Debbs- Socialism
Wilson grew up in the south. before politics he was a lawyer, history teacher, and Governor of New Jersey.
