Great Presidents of the Progressive Era were Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson.

The most meaningful part of this book, The River of Doubt, I believe is when Theodore Roosevelt decided to go on the journey to the Amazon. This is the most meaningful part to me because it shows how you should never give up and just because you can’t get one thing that you want doesn’t mean you can’t reach a different goal.

These were the people who thought it was their job to bring education and religion to the people of different ethnicities (Kipling 1). The election of 1912 played a big role in Progressivism. Woodrow Wilson and Teddy Roosevelt ran against each other under the same movement but with different ideas. Wilson pushed for a larger government and smaller businesses, while Roosevelt was for the opposite. This made the Progressive movement a top-down argument where people try to fix the countries…

the allies as well. Woodrow Wilson, the 28th president, took a page out of George Washington’s book over 100 years later.
