Elections of 1912 and 2000

A detailed Summary of Elections of 1912 and 2000

Woodrow Wilson and William Howard Taft in nineteen-twelve were counterparts to Al Gore and George W. Bush in two thousand. There were others running for presidency as well, just as there are today, but for the purpose of this paper, we shall compare and contrast only these four.

First, let us look at the issues of nineteen-twelve in comparison to the issues of today before we get to the actual presidential nominees. Prohibition was a big issue in nineteen-twelve life, and continued to be long after. Other issues then included the trusts and regulations of businesses, votes for women, conservation of natural resources, the tariff, and direct democracy. Today we have the issues of health care, social security, abortion, and gun rights. There are more, but these four cause the most heated debates. When you look at the difference in issues of today, and issues of then, they vary g

As entertaining as discussing and thinking on the subject on World War III, George W. Bush and William Howard Taft are needing to be compared. Bush and Taft have less in common than Gore and Wilson. For starters, Taft had more experience. The two candidates had different views on how the government was to be run, and how to handle the nation's money, but both were and are older than their opposites. Other than that, Bush and Taft did and do not have all that much in common.

reatly. Or perhaps not: votes for women could be teamed up with the gun issue as general rights. Now, woman having the vote is expected and encouraged as much as with me, then people having guns was a matter not questioned. Direct democracy is not talked of much outside of classrooms now, and then social security was unheard of. With different issues came different styles of debating.

We have civil debates now.
