| Description | Cartoon shows President Franklin D. Roosevelt, wearing a hat labeled "Political Candidate," climbing aboard a bandwagon labeled "Teamsters Union" driven by Teamster president Dan Tobin. He waves a cheery farewell to another Roosevelt seated behind his desk, labeled "Commander in Chief." On Sept. 23, 1944, Roosevelt made one of the few speeches in his campaign to win an unprecedented fourth term as president at a rally sponsored by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. The campaign was carried on toward the end of World War II, and despite the infrequency of his campaign appearances, Roosevelt easily defeated Republican challenger Thomas E. Dewey. |
