What most of the "FDR conspired to drag America into WW2" folks do NOT realize is that Lend-Lease and the "Neutrality Patrol" (which was anything BUT neutral) were actually quite popular moves at the time. There was a sense in America that we should help England with all aid possible short of war--and if Hitler didn't like it, he could have a nice warm cup of STFU.

What is your definition of "quite popular"? As I remember it, it was not a majority opinion at the time.
