What would Lincoln do?' President Theodore Roosevelt sitting at a desk pondering the Philippine and Central American issues, papers on his desk state: "Philippine Policy, Panama Canal Treaty, [and] Mastery of the Hemisphere". He imagines a stature of Abraham Lincoln, around which are vignettes showing Roosevelt denying the "Philippine Petition for Freedom", using force against Colombia at the Panama Canal, menacing "South America" and "Central America" with a big club, and standing with arms folded across his chest, wearing imperial robes and a crown.
