In 1901 after McKinley was assassinated, Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt became president. He was president for six years due to his progressive ways. America had not seen a man in charge like Roosevelt, he was fun, sociable and always willing to speak to…
William Howard Taft, who was president from 1909-1913, transformed the country with new plans and proposals that were extremely different than those that had come before him. Previously, foreign policy had been defined only by the size and power of an army, but Taft sought to help other nations along with the United States.

Calvin Coolidge’s values were timeless, and beneficial to all people. He understood the importance of doing everything to the best of his abilities, he supported the voting equality of women, he enjoyed learning simply for learning’s sake, and he never believed that he was any worthier than the rest of America. These values would serve many modern politicians well, and are also constantly applicable in the regular life of myself and countless others. Calvin Coolidge went to school in order to…
hair-splitter to pretend that I don't regard them as arrant and negligible moonshine. In theory I am an agnostic, but pending the appearance of radical evidence I must be classed, practically and provisionally, as an atheist. (Letter to Robert E.

He did not include those situations mentioned above precisely for this…
It all ended on a Monday in Utah at exactly 7:15 pm. When I describe myself as a white haired, red eyed, and average weight and height 15 year old people think I'm albino. Its actually the opposite I'm a bit tanned in fact. Well after deciding to walk around the park for ten minutes I decided to go home.
