Overview

This book is specially formatted with a Touch-or-Click Table of Contents!

For the first time in one e-book, you can compare both Theodore Roosevelt's speech and Barack Obama's 100-year anniversary speech!

Roosevelt made the case for what he called the New Nationalism in a speech in Osawatomie, Kansas, on August 31, 1910. The central issue he argued was government protection of human welfare and property rights, but he also argued that human welfare was more important than property rights. He insisted that only a powerful federal government could regulate the economy and guarantee social justice, and that a President can only succeed in making his economic agenda successful if he makes the protection of human welfare his highest priority. Roosevelt believed that the concentration in industry was a natural part of the economy. He wanted executive agencies (not the courts) to regulate business. The federal government should be used to protect the laboring men, women and children from exploitation. In terms of policy, Roosevelt's platform included a broad range of social and political reforms advocated by progressives.

On December 6, 2011, Barack Obama traveled to Oswatomie, Kansas to speak about the same things and a troubled economy.
