The Attempted Assassination of ex-President Theodore Roosevelt
Remey, Oliver E.
Roosevelt, Theodore, 1858-1919
The abolition of the third term tradition is the abolition of the
Monroe Doctrine also. In this Doctrine we are overtaking the
guardianship over all republics on the American continent against
Foreign encroachments. Naturally the third termer would prove too in
1916 that the fourth term is only his second, to do this he would have
to become the conquering hero, we would commit the same faults France
did 100 years ago National aggrandisement, yet France no larger today
than before Napoleon I. The fourth termer could hardly gather laurels
in a European or Asiatic war the natural consequences would that South
America would become the field of his actions. We have upheld the
Monroe Doctrine without the consent of these countries so she could
prevent those nations from inviting a European power to protect them by
declaring that inasmuch as the third term tradition is abolished, the
Monroe Doctrine is no longer binding, because they are more afraid of
the third termer than they would be of any foreign prince. The prudence
of our forefathers has delivered to us an equally sacred unwritten law
which reads that no president should embrace another Creed than
Protestant if possible a sect of the English church. I am a Roman
Catholic. I love my religion but I hate my church, as long as the Roman
parish is not independent from Rome, as long as Catholic priests are
prevented from getting married, as long as Rome is still more engaged
in politics and accumulation of money contrary to the teachings of the
Lord, the Roman Catholic church is not the religion for a president of
the United States. The separation of state from church in France has
sufficiently proved that Rome and republic are enemies.
