At the moment they are trying to pass a constitutional amendment aimed pri- marily at me, but also at him. In his case they offer him the sop of six years certain instead of a possible eight years, and he may be willing to accept six. For my own sake I very earnestly hope they will pass the amendment, but from 352 THEODORE ROOSEVELT AND HIS TIME the standpoint of the country it is not an amendment they ought to pass. Think what a calamity it would have been if Lincoln had been ineligible for re...election! That one fact might have meant splitting the country absolutely into two." His views on the Constitution as a "straight- jacket" were set forth in the following letter to a somewhat muddle- headed critic on April 2, 1913 : "In your letter you say that the newspapers report me as saying that 'the time has gone by when the Constitution should be looked upon as a straight- jacket made by dead men to prevent live men from growing. ' Then you add that it seems to you that I must have been incorrectly quoted, for you 'don't think that' I 'regard the Constitution of the United States as a straight- jacket.' ' * Eeally I don 't understand you.
