He got us involved in a war that had nothing to do with America. He ran America as an authoritarian police state. The draft was outlawed after the civil war with the 13th amendment.
He got around that by claiming that with a declaration of war, the entire nation had “volunteered” for duty and selective service was merely picking from a pool of volunteers.
The evil acts he pushed onto American life included propaganda, and a reign of terror over German Americans who had been in the country since before the revolution.
Then he was a virulent racist, firing all blacks from civil service. He was an advocate of the KKK and screened Birth of a Nation in the White House.
He openly said the Constitution was dated and we should not be restricted by it.
He had no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
When the United States declared war on Germany in April 1917, President Woodrow Wilson faced a reluctant nation. Wilson had, after all, won his reelection in 1916 with the slogan, “He kept us out of the war.” To convince Americans that going to war in Europe was necessary, Wilson created the Committee on Public Information (CPI), to focus on promoting the war effort.
To head up the committee, Wilson appointed a brilliant political public relations man, George Creel. As head of the CPI, Creel was in charge of censorship as well as flag-waving, but he quickly passed the censor’s job to Postmaster General Albert S. Burleson.
Goebbels later on admitted that he learned most of his tactics from looking at what Creel did.
