This man is ranked as the ninth best president of the United States.
Explain

It was a different time

White people are racist crackers and lie to your face about it, we all know. All we can do is release brown men upon their dissatisfied women and breed the racism out of them.

Because he didn't notice that America is Amerindian land.

Liberals, like everyone, often hold revisionist and contradictory views of history.
In their minds, one one hand, blacks are disadvantaged by historical racism. On the other hand, they don't think the US is a tradtionally white nationalist country.
It's amazing to see them jump from one idea to the other during conversation.

Blacks are the ones being bred out, though.
They're already 30% European on average.

propaganda from big banking and military industrial complex
>signed federal reserve act
>entered in war he had no business being in
he did everything the aforementioned parties could have wanted, and now he gets shilled to every American child growing up so that people think the things he did were "good" and that we should continue to do them

The democrats created the klan so this doesn’t surprise me.

>it's a "stormfag tries to discuss history" episode

I like Wilson for telling it like it is

Wilson destroyed Europe so that's why americans love him.

Historical rankings are made typically by historians who hold certain views and opinions of issues. These opinions bias themselves towards weighting certain things above others. I'm sure that a historian with interest in economics probably rates him highly for the creation of the federal reserve, while another historian rates him highly for showing "global leadership" in World War 1. Others probably like he introduced the idea of the "Living Constitution" into the federal government. Others simply like him because he was a progressive. Given another 50 years when the opinions of academia change, and Woodrow will drop, in much the same way people's opinions of Jefferson change every so often. It's rare for a president to enjoy consistently high opinion through eras.

He loved Edna.

>America started WW1

why do you choose to be retarded?

This, they have Obama down as the 12th best president ever for god's sake

See I feel like if Obama really was that good ISIS wouldn't have rose to power, the Arab Spring wouldn't have been a clusterfuck, and people would've been motivated to keep his policies in place by electing Hillary.

the thing is you can't really judge him without seeing the long term outcome of his policies. Should Kim drop the nuke tomorrow he's going to be as well perceived as Hoover.

Except he came in at a time when the US economy was suffering from a massive recession, left with a stable economy and instituted a somewhat coherent healthcare system.

>coherent healthcare system

You are poor or not white otherwise your healthcare has gotten worse

But everyone does love a " USA are the good guys" episode

>the healthcare is fine if you are not poor
nice system you have there

Wilson ruined the country. The early 20th century socialist-minded version of an SJW; ruined Europe to virtue-signal.

That wasn't what he was saying, retard. He's probably saying that by entering the war on the side of the entente he destroyed europe. Whether or not that too is retarded is another question.

This

>protecting American shipping is virtue signaling

That's exactly why he's unimpressive. He came in when there was nowhere to go but up.

This was the consensus back then. Read Chestertons's History of the United States.
Whether it's true? Who knows. The very best of today's historians are nearly worthless and cannot even grasp the basics ideas behind the revolution or the culture of the virginia aristocracy. Do you expect them to arrive at the truth on a subject so controversial as this?

Would you like some graphs explaining why the economy is not-good?

>Wilson is born into a middle class family in 1850s
>grows up during the souths secession from the union
>father becomes some minor big shot in the CSA
>Wilson sees the war first hand as a child
>his childhood is seeing the war, his hometown desultory, and then living up in extreme poverty, scrounging for food

>years later, WW1 happens
>Wilson tries to form a union of European powers to make sure that never happens again
>Europoors fuck it up

>"REEEEE! WILSON WAS A JEWISH ELITE WHO KILLED EUROPE FOR BANKING FOR REASONS! ITS ALL HIS FAULT!"

why is /pol/ so retarded?

He expanded domestic spying programs on a massive scale, ultilized automated aircraft to kill people, and left the nation more ideologically divided while pushing something to leave a lasting legacy.


Maybe if he didn't roast Donald Trump so hard about the birth certificate, things would be different now too.

>be against women's suffrage
>Have a stroke and leave a woman in control of the presidency

He was the last person who wanted to enter the war. Teddy Roosevelt wanted to enter it in 1914.

Is Teddy /ourguy/

>Wilson tries to form a union of European powers
>He helps make the League of Nations
>US doesn't join

Fucking Americunts
