Progressive party \Progressive party\ (U. S. History)
   The political party formed, chiefly out of the Republican
   party, by the adherents of Theodore Roosevelt in the
   presidential campaign of 1912. The name Progressive party was
   chosen at the meeting held on Aug. 7, 1912, when the
   candidates were nominated and the platform adopted. It was
   also known as the Bull Moose Party. Among the chief
   articles in the platform are those demanding direct
   primaries, preferential primaries for presidential
   nominations, direct election of United States senators,
   women's suffrage, and recall of judicial decisions in certain
   cases. In 1924 the label was also adopted by the party
   supporting the presidential campaign of Robert M. La
   Follette, and in 1948 it was also adopted by the party of
   Henry Wallace. The party is no longer (1998) considered a
   force in U. S. national politics.
