wanted isolationism & refused join
the League under any circumstances

attacked the treaty & League:

League of Nations & refused to
compromise with the Senate

public support for the treaty, but
had a stroke during the tour

own peace treaty with Germany in 1921

as an imperial power & reluctantly
entered WWI to protect free trade
–Involvement in WWI led to changes
for women & blacks, an economic
boom, & the restriction of liberties
–The U.S. played a major role in the
peace process, but refusal to join
the League weakened the ability of
world leaders to stop World War II
