he's your scumbag

Not in the slightest. Your argument has degenerated into: "You must agree with Wilson because I say you have to agree with Wilson."

Balderdash.

Wilson actually believed his 14 points would bring perpetual peace to Europe.

Hamilton never indulged such folly.

Wilson was a liberal Democrat and a Jeffersonian. He has nothing to do with me, a conservative Republican and a Hamiltonian.

Not at all. I argue that Hamilton was an old fashioned imperialist who wanted to make the U.S. stronger by annexing territory not by "spreading democracy." You fail to address this argument or provide counterevidence.

Second, I argue Wilson was the first major politician to call for the spread of democracy through force of arms(without annexation) throughout the world. This is exactly the stated goal of both the president and the neo-cons. You also fail to address this argument or provide counterevidence.
