The last statement more or less sums up the general opinion among the American public, largely shaped by the opinion makers, intellectuals and the media. The idea that America should get involved in world affairs and enhance its standing was definitely there with some pockets. But there were circumstances which did not favor President Wilson in trying to push through his ideas of creating an international peacekeeping organization. His own problems with the Congress or the lack of its support to him was another reason President Wilson was unable to sell his idea effectively.
