Title: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: Phony Moderate on September 25, 2012, 01:23:50 PM 3 days.
For me, it would have probably been Debs, though TR is a possibility. Certainly not Woody anyway. Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: Goldwater on September 25, 2012, 05:48:38 PM Taft, I suppose.
Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: 🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸 on September 26, 2012, 02:12:08 AM probably Taft, though w/o hindsight possibly Wilson. Wilson seemed at some times to want to devolve power (both corporate and political) and other times to want to concentrate it in government (esp. executive) so I'm not sure how I would have perceived him at the time.
Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: Marokai Backbeat on September 26, 2012, 03:34:55 AM Such a great collection of candidates here. I wouldn't regret voting for any of them that much, but though my heart says Debs, my mind says TR; I'm going with Roosevelt.

Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: © tweed on September 26, 2012, 09:57:51 AM Debs though he would not have been totally my kind of (s)ocialist at that point in history

Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: morgieb on September 26, 2012, 08:11:47 PM I love how all these "progressive leftists" are perfectly okay with supporting an imperialistic jingoistic warmonger. Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: © tweed on September 26, 2012, 08:15:41 PM I love how all these "progressive leftists" are perfectly okay with supporting an imperialistic jingoistic warmonger. no. American socialism was growing at a fast pace before WWI. Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: 🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸 on September 26, 2012, 09:15:26 PM I love how all these "progressive leftists" are perfectly okay with supporting an imperialistic jingoistic warmonger. Wilson couldn't have been considered a warmonger in 1912, and for all his faults related to WW1 his approach was anything but imperialistic.

Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: Atlas Has Shrugged on October 12, 2012, 04:40:04 PM I would vote the only candidate who was at least honest about being a Socialist, Debs.
Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: Comrade Funk on October 12, 2012, 06:29:57 PM Teddy
Title: Re: 1912 U.S. Presidential Election Post by: Peter the Lefty on November 21, 2012, 02:27:48 PM Debs, since TR was an imperialist and a xenophobe.
