The list is horrible.
What the hell is with the love for Woodrow Wilson? The man was, even by the standards of his time, a vehement racist (and in the 1910s that took some doing)
By the same token though, can't it be said that pretty much everyone was a racist back then? He may be a
vehement racist by today's standards, but he by the standards of the 1910s he was only somewhat more racist than his compatriots. Yes, he segregated the federal workforce, but segregation did not begin with him. His presidency was only the culmination of a long trend that began with the election of 1876.
Isn't this like saying Eisenhower had to be almost literally dragged into intervening at Little Rock? Yes, it'd be better if he had supported it from the outset, but of his two predecessors only TR became a champion and only after he'd long left the Presidency.
Ah, the war. Yet this war the war that launched the U.S. into position as the world's foremost power, and New York City as the world's new financial center. It ranks #2 only behind WWII in establishing he American century. For a lesser sacrifice in time, men and materials committed, we gained more than any other country involved, and the economy boomed. As for his campaigning to keep us out of it-- well yes, but after Germany launched unrestricted submarine warfare the decision to go in could hardly have been called unprovoked.
Shouldn't the Senate be responsible for the Senate's actions?
One of Wilson's greatest legacies was in the realm of foreign policies. This is a good summation of why historians might consider him good-
