Is there answer choices or not if not I can still answer the question
N the late 19th century people like Teddy Roosevelt and Henry Cabot Lodge felt America should expand beyond its borders for all of the following reasons except "<span>b. as an extension of manifest destiny" since this mindset only applied to furthering US borders in the continental US. </span>
Answer:
The failure of the US army to complete it's true objective (to capture Pancho VIlla), as well as garner support from the locals, and the failure of being an effective fighting force, saw that the US military was extremely unprepared and needed a re-work. This was especially true and the restructure direly needed in the rising tide of World War I.
This was put partially in place by declaring peace in the early days which allowed for the production of military hardware, as well as the slow process of training new troops, which was further sped up with the US inclusion into the world war militarily.
