subject

Use the excerpt to answer the question. Excerpt from Roosevelt’s “It Takes More Than That to Kill a Bull Moose” speech, 1912

"And now, friends, this incident that has just occurred —this effort to assassinate me—emphasizes to a peculiar degree the need of the Progressive movement. Friends, every good citizen ought to do everything in his or her power to prevent the coming of the day when we shall see in this country two recognized creeds fighting one another, when we shall see the creed of the "Havenots" arraigned against the creed of the "Haves." When that day comes then such incidents as this to-night will be commonplace in our history. When you make poor men —when you permit the conditions to grow such that the poor man as such will be swayed by his sense of injury against the men who try to hold what they improperly have won, when that day comes, the most awful passions will be let loose and it will be an ill day for our country.

Now, friends, what we who are in this movement are endeavoring to do is forestall any such movement for justice now - a movement in which we ask all just men of generous hearts to join with the men who feel in their souls that lift upward which bids them refuse to be satisfied themselves while their countrymen and countrywomen suffer from avoidable misery. Now, friends, what we Progressives are trying to do is to enroll rich or poor, whatever their social or industrial position, to stand together for the most elementary rights of good citizenship, those elementary rights which are the foundation of good citizenship in this great Republic of ours."

Using the excerpt, answer (a) and (b):

(a) In 1–2 sentences, explain how Theodore Roosevelt connects the assassination attempt to issues endemic to the 1912 presidential campaign.

(b) In 2–3 sentences, explain what those issues were and how they relate to the progressive movement.

Pls help I just don't know where to start and I haven't learned much about this. Will give brainliest!!
