Wilson was one I used to rate higher but I’ve come to really dislike Wilson despite definitely being a bit of a Wilsonian on FP. The catch is I’m more a Wilsonian than Wilson was. Wilson’s belief in sovereignty for the nations didn’t extend to the former Asian and African colonies and he wasn’t too big on it for countries like the UK where he was positively inclined to because of his educational and ancestral background. Plus he definitely set race relations back big time.

Grandma Bacon worked in the Navy Department during World War 1. Grandma told me the only reason she got that job was that Wilson purged all the African-Americans from the Civil Service.
