DBWI: Wilson defeated Hughes

[NOT gonna be banned soon]

I believe he would, I mean, after all, you can't have your ships sunk and your southern border threatened without going to war. No matter who got elected (except Benson), they would had gone into the war. Wilson would probably die in 1919 as he did OTL, and Marshall could had become president.

I suppose I can see the Germans being more hostile to a Wilson administration. Would they really have gone through with their plans for warfare on neutral vessels post-1916 when the Kaiser opposed it IOTL?

Huh, pretty good point. But still, Germany was a constitutional monarchy, and the Zimmermann telegram (a telegram written by Arthur Zimmermann but never sent, it was discovered last year) could had pushed Wilson, or at least the American public becoming accustom to it. Also, did you hear about the news? GOP nominee Jim Douglas said his VP pick will be tomorrow. Man, I am so excited!

I don't understand the point. Wilson actually defeated Hughes and didn't run in 1920.

The Wilson isolationist myth needs to die. He'd probably suffer the stroke earlier while in office if he took us into war (which he would have just like Hughes) giving us President Marshall.

Hughes didn't take us into the war because, by the time Congress would even consider it, Germany was too close to Paris. He didn't care about France.

In retrospect, it may have been better if France had won so Rene Bousquet never came to power. Without that, we probably would never have had the Wars of the Coalition.

Yeah, about Bousquet, who would have been the German Bousquet? If we had gotten into the war, then Germany may had lost and a German Bousquet may appear.
