On October 14, 1912, former President Theodore Roosevelt was waving to a crowd from his car as he arrived to give a campaign speech in Milwaukee, Wisconsin when a shot rang out. The bullet from Roosevelt's would-be assassin would pass through Roosevelt's overcoat, his eyeglass case and the manuscript for his speech before becoming lodged in Roosevelt's body. The shooter, John Schrank, was immediately apprehended and it was soon learned that he had been stalking Roosevelt across the country for weeks. Roosevelt's aides wanted to bring him to the hospital immediately, but Roosevelt insisted on going forward with his speech, though he abridged it somewhat at the urging of his campaign officials who attempted to interrupt him and get Roosevelt the medical attention he needed. While his third-party candidacy - he ran under the "Bull Moose Party" banner - would be unsuccessful that year in running against Woodrow Wilson, Roosevelt would win 27% of the vote, the most any third party candidate has ever received in a Presidential election.
