    Theodore Roosevelt wanted William Taft to succeed him as president because Roosevelt thought Taft would carry out Roosevelt's progressive reforms.

    William Taft was the Secretary of War in Roosevelt's administration. President Roosevelt wanted Taft to succeed him to continue with his progressive reforms but that was not the case. It could be said that Taft broke with Roosevelt or vice versa, and Theodore Rosevelt formed his Progressive Party in 1912.
