From my favorite Socialist in American history: “Mr. Wilson, who had all his life been opposed to militarism, has now become the avowed champion of plutocratic preparedness, and today he stands before the country pleading in the name of Wall Street and its interests for the largest standing army and the most powerful navy in the world.” -Eugene Debs, campaigning for a US House seat in 1916, while Woodrow Wilson was running for reelection as POTUS Debs, based as usual on war issues, saw through the BS of Wilson's "he kept us out of war!" campaign messaging.

Well, I powered through being sick & managed to record all of Woodrow Wilson Part 13 today. On the morrow shall be The Editing.
