Coming to power after the assassination of President McKinley, Roosevelt gained swift popularity with the Orcs. He arbitrated the end to the Large Rock Manufactory Strike, adopted the "Big Bludgeon" policy for foreign relations, and negotiated the end of the Khemri-Vampire War. His efforts against the great Blunderbuss monopolies of the age earned him the moniker "The Skull Buster." He also showed tremendous foresight, passing laws to protect the barren wastelands from landscapers attempting to beautify them. Ending his presidency after two terms, he sought a third term four years later, believing his obese successor incompetent. He lost, painted by his opponents as a warmonger seeking a fight against the dwarves. Ironically, the Orcs ended up fighting the Dwarves two year laters. Because they're Orcs. That's what they do.
