Alexander the Great
Harold (the king who died at Hastings)
McKinley. Because of Roosevelt we got Wilson and progressivism, the 16th Amendment, the Fed, etc.
One more: Mohammed’s wife. If she had lived, she would have told him to quit with his stupid cave fantasies and make her happy.
Teddy Roosevelt himself was a progressive. As President he advocated for an Income Tax Amendment. The National Monetary Commission study that led to the Fed began during his administration. His great fame was as a trust buster. People oddly think that Wilson was the first progressive President.
Teddy was so much of a progressive that in the 1912 Election he ran for President on the Progressive Party ticket, the real name of the Bull Moose Party.
