We fought WW2 why?

Because Pres. Wilson stuck in nose into WW1 where it didn't belong.

***Because Pres. Wilson stuck in nose into WW1 where it didn’t belong. ***

And was re-elected on a “HE KEPT US OUT OF WAR!” Campaign, Not long after his re-election, we were in it!

Uh, no he didn’t. He left the lives lost in the Lusitania unavenged for two years. (He would have done so for far longer, which would have made him worse than Hillary if he didn’t finally enter the war.) He was (in)famous for writing notes to the Kaiser, begging him to exclude US ships or ships with US nationals on board from that “unrestricted submarine warfare”.

Wilson“s 1916 re-election slogan was “He Kept Us Out Of War”.

George Washington warned against the USA projecting a “reputation of weakness”. Wilson did just that, and had to backpedal furiously.
