Answer: The most accurate quote would be "The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations". In this statement, the Founding Fathers clearly express their repulse towards the King of Great Britain, due to all the problems that he had caused to the American colonists. They also want this example to serve as a precedent, so that they wont commit the same mistake of having a monarchy.
The US before this point had an interest to stay neutral. However, in 1917, Jan 16, the US was informed by the British Empire US to join the war since Germany would help Mexico regain land lost, the US saw that as a problem. This incited them to declare war (This event was known as the Zimmerman Telegram)
So in summary, yes, it was in the national interest of the United States to declare war in 1917
Black and white abolitionists often had different agendas by the 1840s, and certainly in the 1850s. But one of the greatest frustrations that many black abolitionists faced was the racism they sometimes experienced from their fellow white abolitionists.
