I am not sure how you feel about a copy and paste from Wikipedia, but here is what I read:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IsolationismFollowing World War I, the United States population turned to isolationism during the 1920s, opposing any action by the government that would drag the country into another European war. This isolationist tendency led to the imposition of tariffs. For the most part, American isolationism came to an end during World War II, particularly following the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor in December of 1941. However, the USA cannot be said to have upheld a complete isolationist policy during WWII prior to Pearl Harbor. The USA had been selling equipment and resources to the Allies while claiming to not want to be involved in the war.Also it was Wilson who was re-elected in 1916 on a platform of staying out of WWI.
