When the [[Spanish-American War]] started he became a rough rider.  Because of his well known assault on San Juan Hill and other patriotic acts he was nominated for Vice-President with incumbent William McKinley.  When President McKinley was fatally shot by an [[anarchist]], Roosevelt automatically became President, and was reelected against a challenge by the Democratic candidate Alton B. Parker in 1904.

When Roosevelt's term was up he supported Republican candidate and then Vice President [[William H. Taft]], but later he expressed disapproval of Taft's handling of the presidency and ran against him.  He lost the Republican nomination to Taft but ran as an independent on the Bull Moose Progressive party.  Both he and Taft lost to Democrat [[Woodrow Wilson]] in the election of 1912.<ref>[[Encyclopedia of Presidents Theodore Roosevelt]] By Zachary Kent, Chicago Press</ref>
