Renowned hunter, cattle rancher, writer, military man, politician, reformer – and inspiration for the “Teddy Bear” – Teddy Roosevelt served in New York as an assemblyman, as New York City police commissioner, and as governor of the state before becoming the youngest president in after McKinley’s assassination.
Roosevelt greatly expanded the use of presidential power (many argued that he usurped that power), his domestic effort was marked by business regulation and trust-busting, and he stimulated the growth of both labor unions and the welfare state. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” was the hallmark of his foreign policy, as he made the U.S. the virtual guardian of the Western Hemisphere and a major force in European and Far Eastern isement
His accomplishments include laying the foundation for the American construction of the Panama Canal, making the U.S. a great naval power, enacting the Pure Food and Drug Act, and spearheading the American conservationist movement.
