Education Clip Rough Riders During WWI

Theodore Roosevelt visits Wilson and volunteers to put together the Rough Riders to lead them into battle again. Though he admired TR, Wilson had to turn him down. TR was crestfallen and disillusioned and comes to the realization that the world he knew has come to an end.
