World War III

[Captdon]

The run up to these things is always presided over by Republicans.

Amazing lack of knowledge. The Dems controlled all three branches of government for years before WWII.

Herbert Hoover and his thugs caused the 1929 crash. THAT was the number two reason that Hitler and the Japanese conspired for war. The number one reason for Germany turned into the treaty that ended WWl.

Eisenhower got US into Vietnam dude.

WWl was brewing long before Wilson came into office. Prior efforts to stall the war failed.

Wilson was the one who got us into a war that was none of our business.

Herbert Hoover’s Laizze-fare led directly to the 1929 crash. Don’t make me embarrass you by proving it.

You’re jumping all over the place. Please stick to what I related with respect to the researched and well written history that will tell you everything I’ve said.

Prior to 1914, efforts to stop the war from happening weren’t successful. Both FDR AND Wilson did their best to uphold American decisions to stay out, but right-wing economic policies ruined any stability and as a result we were forced into two wars AND the crash of 1929.

Idiocy. We had nothing to do with WWI until Wilson got us into it. No one forced it. Research that.

FDR wanted us to fight the Nazis. "Germany First".

And the rise of the Nazi Party was caused by the US interference. France was aligned with Russia by a treaty/alliance. England was drawn in by the fear that Europe was going to then become a German Empire.
In hindsight that happened anyways with the EU. England used Belgium as the excuse but Belgium was never even a country for most of history. They do not even have their own language or even a single language.

Same with Vietnam

Which ones ?

True. Didn't a prime minister or King get shot or something? Seriously , was that our problem ?

Typical left wing bullying

I see no real reason to "refute" anything you might say since you simply claim I don't know what I am talking about and then call me "dude" or right winger like its a slur.

You are without a doubt the least interesting poster on any forum I have ever been on. I would rather debate Common Sense or Standing Wolf (at least they usually know what they are talking about) than to treat you as anything more than the uneducated partisan hack you are.

(chuckle)

Whenever you develop the talent to best me in debate let me know.

Capton is ignorant. England and France got US into the war. Wilson held out as long as he could, just like FDR and WWII.

“Get shot or something?”

(chuckle)

Why don’t you pick up a book for cryin out loud!

Hoover's Economic Policies

Many historians, most of the general public, and even many economists think of Herbert Hoover, the president who preceded Franklin D. Roosevelt, as a defender of laissez-faire economic policy. According to this view, Hoover’s dogmatic commitment to small government led him to stand by and do nothing while the economy collapsed in the wake of the 1929 stock market crash. The reality is quite different. Far from being a bystander, Hoover actively intervened in the economy, advocating and implementing polices that were quite similar to those that Franklin Roosevelt later implemented. Moreover, many of Hoover’s interventions, like those of his successor, caused the great depression to be “great”—that is, to last a long time.

...Hoover did not stand idly by after the depression began. To fight the rapidly worsening depression, Hoover extended the size and scope of the federal government in six major areas: (1) federal spending, (2) agriculture, (3) wage policy, (4) immigration, (5) international trade, and (6) tax policy.
