This 6.5" x 7.5" Typed Letter, Dated November 14th, 1914, has been personally signed by Theodore Roosevelt. The letter has been professionally framed to overall dimensions of approximately 16.5" x 25". Furhter accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services. Roosevelt writes to Oscar King Davis, Press Secretary of the Progressive Party, just eleven days after the 1914 election, revealing his disgust with the results, and saying that the American people had been taken in. Roosevelt specifically uses Lincoln's famous words "you could fool all of the people part of the time".

“There is nothing that you can say about the voters at this particular election that is not justified. There is no conceivable iniquity they did not joyfully support. But don't forget that Lincoln's statement was merely that you could not fool all of the people all of the time. He explicitly admitted that you could fool all of the people part of the time – and this is a portion of that part of the time!"
