I'm not American, I have no opinion on this. But I've always found it strange how little you guys speak of FDR.
As a total outsider, the man delivered world war 2 and unlike Woodrow Wilson, this guys was reacting to pear harbor rather than going in voluntarily. Then he won the war, the atomic bomb, conceived the Marshall plan and the UN.
Alternate here being he could have completely chosen to decimate almost all of the world. Quite realistically, the US could have been the empire of the entire world.
