You're thinking of a different Roosevelt
Teddy Roosevelt created the Bull Moose Party after having a falling out with William Howard Taft and the Republican party. The split between the two parties led to Democrat underdog Woodrow Wilson winning the presidency (with only 46% of the popular vote)
Franklin D Roosevelt always ran as a Democrat, and the 22nd Amendment was passed after he died.
