In this episode of Dave Does History on Bill Mick Live, Dave Bowman takes listeners back to one of the most pivotal elections in U.S. history—the election of 1912. It wasn’t just a contest between candidates; it was a clash of ideologies that would shape the nation for decades to come. With four influential contenders—incumbent William Howard Taft, former president Theodore Roosevelt, Democrat Woodrow Wilson, and Socialist Eugene V. Debs—each presenting a unique vision for America's future, this election marked a turning point.
Dave explores the key issues that divided these candidates, from labor rights and corporate power to women’s suffrage and social justice, and examines how Roosevelt’s dramatic split from the Republican Party set the stage for lasting changes in American politics. Tune in to understand why this “Battle of Titans” still resonates, and discover the lessons it holds for today’s political landscape.
