As the 1912 presidential election neared, former President Roosevelt became increasingly agitated by Republican President Taft's ultra-conservative policies, and felt compelled to compete with him for the Republican nomination. Although once friends, the contest became very bitter. Cushing's drawing is an anti-Roosevelt comment, siding with Taft on the issue of who should obtain the nomination.
