Teddy Roosevelt

Campaigning on the Bull Moose ticket for a third term in office in October 1912, Roosevelt was making his way through a crowd that had gathered in front of the Hotel Gilpatrick in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, when would-be assassin John Schrank pulled out a .32 caliber gun, pointed it at the former president�s chest, and pulled the trigger. Luckily much of the force of the bullet was absorbed by the dense pages, which he had tucked into his jacket pocket. Although the bullet lodged itself just short of his lung, Roosevelt, in true Rough Rider style, initially refused medical attention. Instead, he pulled himself up to the podium and started speaking.

and the speech ....

�Friends, I shall ask you to be as quiet as possible. I don�t know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot, but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose,� he said, blood staining through his white vest. �Fortunately I had my manuscript. You see I was going to make a long speech, and there is a bullet � there is where the bullet went through. It probably saved me from it going into my heart. The bullet is in me now, so I cannot make a very long speech. But I will try my best.�

Try he did, ad-libbing much of the words because the bullet had ruptured a hole through the paper, rendering huge chunks unreadable. Remarkably, Roosevelt spoke for a full 90 minutes before going to the hospital.
