Woodrow Wilson, a leader of the Progressive Movement, was the 28th President of the United States (1913-1921). After a policy of neutrality at the outbreak of World War I, Wilson led America into war in order to make the world safe for democracy.. Like Roosevelt before him, Woodrow Wilson regarded himself as the personal representative of the people.
When the war began the United States proclaimed a united policy of strict neutrality in thought and deed. Wilson's goal was to broker a peace and he sent his top aide Colonel House on repeated missions to the two sides, but each was so confident of victory that the peace was ignored.n January 1917 Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare.
