Spanish American war changed the united state' foreign policy from isolationism to imperialism.

Explanation:

Before the Spanish American war, the founding fathers have adopted the policy of isolationism and equipped America to be focused in the development of the homeland. America spent much of its time in building the military might and a strong defensive mechanism. It felt that a powerful defense is necessary not only to save itself from the imperialistic European powers but also to intervene in global affairs in order to extend the influence of America.

United states needed coal producing and delivering ports in Pacific in order to transport coal through ships to the rich markets of Asia specially china. This necessitated America to  capture Guam and Philippines. Spain' imperial control over Cuba and United States Naval Ship called U S S Maine sank in Havana during the Cuban revolt against Spain and this captured the attention of America and America declared war on Spain.

One of the many, many problems Jeb Bush faces in his quest for the Oval Office is his break from Republican orthodoxy on president Ronald Reagan's legacy. In 2012, Bush told a group of reporters that, in today's GOP, Reagan "would be criticized for doing the things that he did"— namely, working with Democrats to pass legislation. He added that Reagan would struggle to secure the GOP nomination today.

Bush was lambasted by fellow conservatives for his comments, but he had a point: If you judge him by the uncompromising small government standards of today's GOP, Reagan was a disaster. Here are a few charts that show why.

Under Reagan, the national debt almost tripled, from $907 billion in 1980 to $2.6 trillion in 1988:

Reagan ended his 1988 farewell speech<span> with the memorable line, "man is not free unless government is limited." The line is still a rallying cry for the right wing, but the speech came at the end of a long period of government expansion. Under Reagan, the federal workforce increased by about 324,000 to almost 5.3 million people. (The new hires weren't just soldiers to fight the communists, either: uniformed military personnel only accounted for 26 percent of the increase.) In 2012, the federal government employed almost a million fewer people than it did in the last year of Reagan's presidency.</span>
