Robert La Follette faced significant opposition from powerful political and corporate interests during his campaign for progressive reforms in the early 20th century. His efforts to implement policies such as tax reform, labor rights, and increased government regulation of railroads were often met with resistance from established political parties and business leaders. Additionally, La Follette struggled to gain widespread support from the electorate, as his progressive ideals sometimes alienated traditional voters. Despite these challenges, he remained a key figure in the Progressive Movement, advocating for social and political change.
Franklin D. Roosevelt and Theodore Roosevelt, both U.S. presidents from the same family, had distinct approaches to leadership and policy. Theodore, serving from 1901 to 1909, focused on progressive reforms, trust-busting, and conservation, emphasizing a strong executive role in regulating business. Franklin, in office from 1933 to 1945, confronted the Great Depression with the New Deal, implementing wide-ranging economic and social reforms to provide relief and recovery. While both championed government intervention, Theodore emphasized regulation, whereas Franklin expanded the government's role in direct economic support and social welfare.
Woodrow Wilson grew unpopular in the U.S. due to several factors, including his handling of the Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations, which faced strong opposition from Congress and the American public. Additionally, his leadership during the post-World War I period was criticized, particularly regarding economic challenges and labor unrest. His commitment to progressive reforms was overshadowed by racial segregation policies and a lack of support for civil rights, contributing further to his decline in popularity.
Wilson, like Roosevelt and Taft, pushed aggressively for economic and political reforms but retreated on civil rights issues. Swayed by his southern upbringing and the support of northern whites, Wilson refused to expand the civil rights of African Americans.

Democrats in recent politics are considered the more liberal of the two parties, while Republicans are related with conservative viewpoints. A liberal party is one that, by definition, seeks progressive reforms in government for the good of the public. For example, the Democratic Party is in support of Gay Marriage and Abortion Rights, a support for the freedom of homosexuals and women. In this instance, the modern Democratic Party would be considered the party of free and progressive ideals.
