Garland doctor subsequent administrations retreated

He observed Germanys military buildup first-hand during his 1910 world tour while spending some quality time with his pal Kaiser Wilhelm II. He also took note of the easily-conquerable countries like Belgium, which was easily conquered as soon as war broke out.

Woodrow Wilson was precisely the wrong man to be in the White House during these days that are to try mens souls. The Roosevelt presidency thrust America out of isolation and set the stage for it to become a world power. The subsequent administrations retreated from foreign affairs as the economy boomed and Americans focused on building up domestic industry and making money.

President Wilson believed America had no vital interests at stake in Europes wars. A large part of the countrys population was descended from immigrants who came from the belligerent nations and still identified strongly as German, Irish, Italian, and others. Getting America involved in the war might risk national unity.

Teddy, no fan of what he called hyphenated Americans, believed that both of these positions were short-sighted. Europe was a huge market for American goods, and the financial systems of Britain and the U.S., united in the house of J.P. Morgan, among others, were profitably intertwined. To Wilsons second argument, Teddy believed that when you became an American citizen you left your prior national identity behind like so much discarded luggage on Americas front porch.
