Look up America First from the late 30s early 40s and you might learn something. Do they not teach history anymore?

You still have not delivered a cogent opinion which enables rebuttal. Look up rhetoric, discursive reasoning and logical presentations, from the Greeks through modern history, and you might learn something. Do they not teach critical thinking anymore?

Since you of the ru paul fan club are so much like the left I will type slowly so that you can understand.

paul’s “foreign policy” is very similar to the America First folks:
The United States must build an impregnable defense for America.
No foreign power, nor group of powers, can successfully attack a prepared America.
American democracy can be preserved only by keeping out of the European war.
“Aid short of war” weakens national defense at home and threatens to involve America in war abroad.

They went out of business after 12-7-41(do I need to explain that date to you?).

So to make a short story of it: these people were not supporting fdr like you claimed, they were opposing him. Also, if we are attacked, it will not be like Pearl Harbor or even 9-11 it will be much worse and building fortress America isn't going to stop ICBMs or medium range missiles. paul’s ideas might have been ok for the 1800s maybe even up to 1918 but isolation is not a viable option for modern times
