Answer:

The Indian Removal Act was strongly supported by the southern states, where the population was anxious to get hold of vast expanses of uncultivated land occupied by the five civilized tribes. In particular, the state of Georgia, the largest state at that time, was involved in a dispute with the Cherokee. President Jackson, who advocated the deportation of Indians for reasons of national security, hoped that deportation could clear the crisis in Georgia. While the deportation of the Natives was to be, according to the law, voluntary, heavy pressure was placed on Indian leaders to sign the treaty. Most observers, whether they were for or against the modalities provided by the treaty, understood that the approval of the law would have involved the removal of many Indians from their homelands. Some Indian-American leaders who initially opposed the implementation of the treaty, reconsidered their position after President Jackson's re-election in 1832 for a second term.

Most white Americans favored the passage of the deportation act even though a strong debate had been created on the law. Many Christian missionaries and in particular the missionary Jeremiah Evarts strongly opposed the approval of the Act. Senator Theodore Frelinghuysen and Congressman David Crockett of Tennessee openly declared themselves against the legislation. The transfer deed was approved by Congress after a very tight debate.

alex41 [277]

President Wilson's appearance in front of the Congress asking for the declaration of war against Germany in hopes that they could influence the terms of the postwar peace settlement.
He proclaimed that the world must be made safe for democracy, to fight for the right of those who submit to authority to be their voice in their governments, for the rights and liberties of small nations and for the safety of all nations and make the world itself free.
The U.S. Senate then voted in favor of war with 82 votes to 6 and two days later the House of Representatives also voted in favor with 373 votes to 50. This solidified and announced the participation of the United States into the First World War.
