Bull Moose Party of 1912

Teddy P. Roosevelt in 1912 feeling sassy, hale and hearty,
Promptly formed a wonderful new impressive political party.
Women suffrage was on the agenda along with primary direct,
Many educated women jumped onboard, his agenda to inspect.
Yet would not get the vote for decades, no matter how clever and arty,
It was called by many supporters and friends the happy Bull Moose Party.

Thank you but I had to make up a middle initial. He had no middle name!
