Yes, Woodrow Wilson was far worse than Nixon, but these days hardly anyone has even heard of him. History is no longer taught.
Obama is close hard but Wilson still wins it. Obama has OFA and Wilson had the klan. Wilson brought in psychologists and media to manipulate the public with the Committee on public information (Creel Commission). Wilson had people spying and reporting on their neighbors to the extent that people in public spoke in hushed voices about their opposition to Wilson out of fear of being arrested.
Almost every tactic we see employed by progressives today were used during Wilson’s progressive era. I wish people would educate themselves so they would learn recognize it and refuse to play along.
