Ricardo Gómez Roji (1881-1936) was a Spanish Roman-Catholic priest, scholar, publisher and politician.
For 26 years he served as a lecturing canon by the Burgos cathedral, known locally for his oratory skills; he also taught theology at the Pontifical University of Salamanca, animated local Catholic agrarian trade unions, and edited and managed few Catholic periodicals and bulletins.
His political career climaxed in 1931-1933; elected to the Congress of Deputies as a candidate of a broad local monarchist-Integrist-conservative alliance, he served one term within the Agrarian parliamentary minority.
Afterwards he approached Carlism and advanced its cause as a propagandist.
