Theodore Roosevelt
The Bull Moose Party was the political party founded by Teddy Roosevelt because he was beaten in the Republican primary by Taft yet still wanted to run for president. The end result was that neither Taft nor TR won.
Theodore Roosevelt was the Bull Moose candidate. The official name was Progressive Party. He did better than the Republican candidate, but he split the vote and the Democrat, Woodrow Wilson stole the election.Roosevelt was shot during the campaign by John Schrank, who believed that any president running for a third term deserved to be shot, and this would have ended his candidacy, but the bullet went through his overcoat and 55 page speech, ending up right below his right lung. He said "It takes more than this to kill a bull moose" to his audience after continuing on to the auditorium to give his speech and walked away unhurt.
There never has been a fourth party. At times a third party has risen, but not lasted long. Teddy Roosevelt in 1912 tried a 3rd party run with the Bull Moose party. He was not successful. The two parties we have are very powerful with lots of money. I doubt we will get a third-party or fourth.
That's pretty open ended. There could be a healthy debate among the many worthy candidates: Churchill, Ghandi, Mandela, Reagan, the Roosevelts (Teddy, FDR and Eleanor) ...
