Teddy Roosevelt: “Americanism is a matter of the spirit that is within, of a man’s soul.”

The American people by a great plurality have conferred upon you the highest honor in their gift.

I congratulate you thereon.

I wish to say that the Progressive Party is making its appeal to all our fellow citizens without any regard to their creed or to their birthplace.

I am all right and you cannot escape listening to the speech either.
