No matter what some people may think about our foreign policy in the 1900s, the facts speak for themselves. Our foreign policy in the 1900s enabled us to become the most powerful nation on earth. The rulers of this country have had the capacity to use that strength for good. In the 1900s, we used our military might and economic prowess a number of times to defend weaker countries and assist poorer nations. As a result of our sound foreign policy, we saved Europe from the tyranny of Nazi aggression, while we attempted to halt the advances of Communism in Korea and Vietnam. Our Marshall plan helped Europe rebuild its economy after WWII. Our Berlin airlift prevented tens of thousands of East Germans from starving to death. Now, i know this isn't 2 or 3 paragraphs but you should expand on what i put.
Most Westerners and some Southerners wanted to go to war to gain land was not part of the debate over going to war with England in 1812 due to fact that there was no land profit for westerners and southerners
