A little background for the youngsters:

In 1912, the "Bull Moose" Party was formed during a fight for the Republican Presidential nomination between President William Howard Taft and former President Theodore Roosevelt. The Bull Moose, or the "Progressive Party" of 1912 was a group led by Roosevelt who felt the GOP had strayed from its core principles.
