William Howard Taft is the answer
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although you did not specify the time in history or any specific context, we are going to assume that you are referring to the US imperialistic role through history.
Being that the case, we can comment on the following.
The foreign policy actions of the United States reflect selfish, imperialist ambitions since the times of President James Polk and the Manifested Destiny. He expanded the US territory acquiring the Mexican northern states after the Mexican-American War.
Since those years, passing through the times of President Monroe and the Monroe Doctrine and President Theodore Roosevelt and his Roosevelt corollary, the United States has always had interventionist purposes as part of its foreign agenda.
Nobody has granted the US the right or role to be the "big brother" who was looking after the interests of the western hemisphere. That is why the US has had many problems throughout history in the Middle East, Latin America, Europe, and other regions.
Charisma and propaganda--Reagan knew how to reach his audience and convince the American people they were in a state of danger and he had been able to keep them safe.
The Reagan administration focused on Cold War tactics first convincing American citizens they were unsafe in a world with communism and the USSR. He then developed military focus and propaganda to prove his leadership was keeping Americans safe. This with large tax breaks and a sense of conservative 'normalcy' made him very popular with the majority of white America.

D. people who made more money pay a higher percentage in taxes
The People's Party, or Populists, wanted an income tax put into place that would require the wealthy to pay a higher percentage of taxes than lower income brackets.
Many of the goals of the Populist Party were to bring down the power and wealth of the top 1% by making them contribute more to the overall well-being of the country. An income tax would bring in more revenue and reduce the wealth of the most powerful. This would also allow the government to reduce taxes paid by farmers to use transportation systems.
