Wilson, Woodrow \n  \nWILSON, WOODROW [Wilson, Woodrow] (Thomas Woodrow Wilson), 1856-1924, 28th President of the United States (1913-21), b. Staunton, Va. \n\nEducator \n\nHe graduated from Princeton in 1879 and studied law at the Univ. of Virginia. Admitted (1882) to the bar, he practiced in Atlanta, Ga., for a year before going to Johns Hopkins to study political science and jurisprudence. In 1885, he published Congressional Government, a significant work. After receiving (1886) his Ph.D. degree, he taught history and political economy at Bryn Mawr (1885-88) and Wesleyan Univ. (1888-90). \n\nIn 1890 he became professor of jurisprudence and political economy at Princeton and gained a reputation for his eloquent orations. Popular with the student body, Wilson, a descendant of Presbyterian ministers on both sides of his family, was elected (1902) president of Princeton, becoming its first nonclerical head. He strove to raise academic standards, reorganized the curriculum, and introduced the preceptorial system of instruction, which provided for more individualized education. \n\nHis attempt to change the social and living facilities by eliminating the elite eating clubs for upperclassmen and introducing the quadrangle system, where students from all of the classes would live and eat together, was less successful. It aroused great hostility, which reached a climax in his bitter struggle with the group headed by Dean Andrew F. West. Wilson lost, but with prompting from George B. M. Harvey, a New York publisher with strong connections in the Democratic party, he ran for governor of New Jersey in 1910 soon after resigning his post at Princeton. \n\nGovernor of New Jersey \n\nWith the aid of the New Jersey Democratic machine, Wilson secured the gubernatorial nomination and, breaking with the machine to espouse progressive policies, went on to win the election. Despite much resistance from the regular Democrats, Wilson forced through the New Jersey legislature such reforms as an employer's liability act, the direct primary, a corrupt-practices act, and revitalization of the state public utilities commission. \n\nPresidency \n\nWilson's gubernatorial record brought him to the forefront of national politics. Although Champ Clark was the leading contender for the presidential nomination at the Democratic convention in 1912, he could not muster the necessary two-thirds vote, and after he had exhausted his strength, Wilson won on the 46th ballot. He was helped by the switch to his side of William Jennings Bryan (prompted by Edward M. House ). The split in the Republican party, which divided into the regular Republicans supporting William Howard Taft and the Progressive party backing Theodore Roosevelt , gained the election for Wilson, who captured 435 electoral votes. \n\nDomestic Policy \n\nWilson revived the custom, abandoned in 1801, of addressing Congress in person and immediately called for a series of reforms, which he had called the "New Freedom" in his presidential campaign. During his administration the tariff was drastically decreased (1913; see Underwood, Oscar Wilder ); the Federal Reserve System was instituted (1913); the La Follette Seamen's Act, regulating labor conditions aboard ship, became law (1915); the Adamson Act, establishing an eight-hour day for railroad employees, was enacted (1916); and the Federal Farm Loan Act, providing for loans to cooperative farm associations, was passed (1916). Wilson continued the policy of curbing monopoly by creating (1914) the Federal Trade Commission to investigate and expose unfair practices of corporations, pushed the passage (1914) of the Clayton Antitrust Act , and instituted antitrust proceedings in 92 cases. The Seventeenth Amendment, providing for the direct popular election of U.S. Senators, the Eighteenth Amendment, which instituted prohibition , and the Nineteenth Amendment, by which women received the vote, were all launched while Wilson was Presiden

Yes Sir!  Robert E. Lee is an a American hero and for one reason, to preserve the right to keep slaves.  Everyone knows that if it wasn't for Woodrow Wilson's Great Grandfather, Jahdi Wilson, none of this would of happened.  Robert E. Lee knew that the Confederacy was the wave to the future and you could get condoms there cheap.  You could drink there at 18 and plantations were just good old plain fun.  When Aaron Burr was giving Charles Barkley head in 1845 he said "Thank you by the grace of God that I can live in the South and have slaves"  Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!

Actually, William Taft is usually considered the 27th president of the United States. This is because Grover Cleveland served two nonconsecutive terms, and is considered to be both the 22nd and the 24th presidents of the United States.\n\nOtherwise, yes it would be Wilson, but historically we usually refer to Taft as our 27th president and Wilson as the 28th.

The United States took a neutral position before entry into WWI.  Wilson had initially run on the platform of the man who would keep the U.S. out of the war.  The government also felt that entry onto the British side would divide the nation (with the U.S.'s large german population.)  The Zimmerman telegram would change all that, of course....

FDR -- Franklin Roosevelt.\nHe brought the country out of the worst depression we've ever faced, made us into a world power economically and militarily, stayed out of WWII until Japan attacked, then led us ably through that long and difficult conflict.  No other president has had trials as difficult or results as good.
