Yeah, sure. Maybe we should amend our views on Adolph Hitler as well. He didn’t like communists either.

Considering the fact that the nazis learned everything they knew about prpaganda from Wilson’s propaganda team, (See Edward Bernays) it isn’t surprising.

I considered saying that, but held back because it may seem in poor taste -- but now that somebody else said it I'll second it.

Hitler liked Stalin, divvying up Eastern Europe, before he didn't like
Stalin, as in Operation Barbarossa.

I liked the story of Wilson as president of Princeton. He was
sucking up to Andrew Carnegie for the purpose getting an
endowment for a law school.

Carnegie shows up for the visit, Wilson asks for the law school,
and Carnegie rebuffs him, saying "You don't need a law
school. You need better rowing facilities. Rowing is a much
pursuit for young men than the study of law."

Princeton got the rowing facilities...
