Tuhia he whakamāramatanga mō tēnei rārangi - I te tau 1920, i whakaritea e Roosevelt, i runga i te tohutohu a Howe, he rangimarie ki te rangatira o Tammany, a Charles Murphy, ā, i rapu anō ia i tētahi tari kāwanatanga o New York. Heoi, i te Hōngongoi, i whakaingoatia ia e te Democratic National Convention
hei kaitono mo te perehitini tuarua i runga i te tīkiti me te kawana o Ohio a James M. Cox. I whiriwhiria e Roosevelt a Howe hei kaiwhakahaere mo tana kaupapa. Ko te tiikiti a Cox<unk>Roosevelt i ngaro i te nuinga ki nga Republican Warren G. Harding me Calvin Coolidge, engari i kite a Roosevelt raua ko Howe i a raua ano kua angitu te hanga i a Roosevelt i te ingoa o te motu; kaore i roa i muri i te kowhiringa pooti, i whakamanamana a Howe ki etahi hoa ka noho tata a Roosevelt ki te Whare Ma, ka mau ki a Howe.
