Why does this remind me of the Bull Moose Party under T. Roosevelt, who was a populist-progressive, tree-hugging elitist president with delusions of grandeur? If you think the big hunting made him a Conservative, there is a deed to a New York bridge in your name at City Hall.

T. Roosevelt was one of the very founders of progressivism. He was a very impressive guy.

If he could come back, he would be astounded at what became of his movement. I doubt that he ever considered that it could end where it is today.

That is what he deserves for thinking that the Constitution was obsolete. Teddy Roosevelt did more to expand Government power than any other president before him, with the possible exception of Lincoln.
