The League of Nations Wilson’s Baby

“[The President] shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur....” -- Article II, Section 2

The Senate vote necessary to ratify a treaty

The number of senators included in Wilson’s peace delegation to Europe.

Republican Majority

An Entanglin g Alliance? ??

Internationalists Ratify the Treaty AS IS Reservationists Ratify the Treaty with Reservations Irreconcilables DON’T RATIFY the Treaty

Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge (R-MA) View

Compromise with Reservationists or stand his ground?

Reservations OK!

“The Senate must take its medicine.” -- Woodrow Wilson

1920 BIGGER Republican Majority

The United States never joined the League. Wilson’s mission to intimately involve the U.S. in global affairs was a failure.

(R-OH) 29 th POTUS MORE INFO Warren G. Harding

Return to Normalcy

Call it the selfishness of nationality if you will. I think it's an inspiration to patriotic devotion to safeguard America first, to stabilize America first, to prosper America first, to think of America first. -- Warren G. Harding Campaign SpeechCampaign Speech (1920)

U.S. foreign policy was isolationist during the 1920s.

“If you study the '20s... there was an American- first policy that said, 'Who cares what happens in Europe?’” -- George W. Bush

“It will be well not to be too much disturbed by the thought of either isolation or entanglement of pacifists and militarists. The physical configuration of the earth has separated us from all of the Old World, but the common brotherhood of man… has united us by inseparable bonds with all humanity.” -- Calvin Coolidge Inaugural Address (1925)
