(B) William Howard Taft
(C) ** Woodrow Wilson
(D) William Mckinley
EXPLANATIONS BELOW
Concept note-1: -The opposition came from two groups: the “Irreconcilables, ” who refused to join the League of Nations under any circumstances, and “Reservationists, ” led by Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman, Henry Cabot Lodge, who wanted amendments made before they would ratify the Treaty.
Concept note-2: -Wilson defeated incumbent Republican William Howard Taft and third-party nominee Theodore Roosevelt to easily win the 1912 United States presidential election, becoming the first Southerner to do so since 1848.
Concept note-3: -His neutral stance and lack of involvement in foreign matters have been attributed to his religious upbringing and academic background. A devout Christian, Wilson did not believe God was calling him to enter World War I, so he attempted to keep the United States out of the conflict.
Concept note-4: -Wilson took direct personal control of American foreign policy, which he believed was constitutionally mandated. He personally attended meetings and negotiations and penned his approval of the Terms of Peace and the Covenant of the League of Nations. But Wilson’s biggest fight was yet to come.
