Education Clip: Theodore Roosevelt and WWI

Ex-President Theodore Roosevelt had been an early critic of neutrality, a proponent of military preparedness, and critical of Woodrow Wilson’s reluctance to declare war against Germany. Not until 1917, when Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare on all vessels at sea, and –– in the Zimmermann Telegram invited Mexico to attack the United States ––did Wilson ask Congress to declare war.
