What was Teddy Roosevelt's ideology?

[Green Line]

If you had to classify it, what would you classify him as?  I was just thinking about it today, he was really a unique President in many ways

Pigheaded imperialism coupled with a conservative distortion of the progressive agenda, I guess.

He definitely belonged in a gulag, Comrade.

Whatever was most convenient for him

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

Roosevelt was a progressive who, like all politicians, did not fully live up to the ideals of his movement (and sometimes blatantly contradicted them).

[RINO Tom]

Most Democrats of the time accused him of "stealing their issue" when it came to trust busting (which is reasonable), and he clearly was to the right of Taft on the issue (if we are to equate the opposition to monopolies with being a strictly liberal position...), so it's hard to say.  Obviously, the fact that he ran on the "Progressive" ticket cannot be simply linked to the same word that Hillary Clinton uses to describe herself in the 21st Century.  I'd say a hawk on foreign policy, a reformer in domestic policy and a brilliant opportunist, most of all.

Nationalist progressive

A Putinist before it was cool

[Zuza]

Populism.

[ScottieF]

First in a long line of hawkish progressivism that can be traced down to Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson and Hillary Clinton.
