Theodore Roosevelt- goes for third term as republcian and Woodrow Willson- democratic party-and WIilliam Taft- didn't really like bieng president but since Roosevelt was running- al wanted to be president- roosevelt wanted a third term, which you cannot serve more than ten years today- TR Splits the republican party into the progressive party or the bull moose party- when he split up the party he broke up party which is dangerous because you have republicans split up between both TR and Taft and you have all the Democrats voting for WIlson so he would have a better chance of winning- Because taft was running that what made Wilson win
