To what extent were Woodrow Wilson's idealistic view accepted by Americans and the world?
Woodrow Wilson's idealistic world view was pretty much not accepted by either the United States or the rest of the world. First of all, Wilson's political feuding with Henry Cabot Lodge and Congress, led to them not caring whether he looked weak before the Allied powers as a result of them failing to ratify the Treaty of Versailles. The Allied partners, considered his Fourteen Points, woefully naive, and rejected it in favor of the harsh Treaty of Versailles.
What were the US Objectives during the Paris Peace Conference?
The US was keen on swaying the French and Brits views towards a more diplomatic resolution to the German dilemma. Woodrow Wilson (US president at the time) hoped that they would vote in favor of his Fourteen Points.
How did Wilson's support for the League of Nations stand in the way of Senate support for the TReaty of Versailles?
The U.S. senate, at the time, was composed of a majority of Republicans. These Senators believed that the Treaty of Versailles was too harsh on the Germans. On the other hand, President Wilson was in favor of the Treaty of Versailles. Wilson's inability to compromise with these Republican senators with the amendment of the Fourteen Points as proposed by Wilson was the main reason why the Treaty of Versailles was defeated.

Who was in favor of the Treaty of Paris?
I will assume your talking about the 1783 Treaty of Paris. Well this treaty ended the Revolutionary War so the Americans were in favor. They got their freedom and other benefits such as the right to fish on Canadian waters( Canada was a British colony back then). They also got the lands to the west of the Appalachians and east of the Mississippi. The only benefit for the British was the ending of the war which was draining their coffers.
Why didn't the US sign the Treaty of Versailies?
American President, Woodrow Wilson, believed that the Treaty was too harsh. The 'Fourteen Points' he had drawn up (which were to be the foundations for a fair and just Treaty) were almost entirely omitted from the final Treaty, and Wilson believed that Germany - which had recently undergone revolution - needed to gain stability and establish its new government.

What were the main points of president Woodrow Wilson?
That he started what is today known as the progressives... which is a slow version of communism.. basically the same goals but via slow progress of changes without revolution. Todays progressives are usually far left liberal democrats (obama, Clintons). Wilson was otherwise a good president in a lot of ways. But we are just a few decades away from discarding the constitution in favor of a socialist variation.

Did Wilsons peace plans received more support than he had first hoped?
Woodrow Wilson's peace plan, more commonly referred to as the Fourteen Points, made him a hero with the public. However, the same was not true of his diplomatic allies. Many had suffered great losses at the hands of Germany, and were more interested in making Germany pay reparations for those losses. Although the allies publicly supported Wilson's plan to keep them in favor with the public, privately they did not agree that his plan would work.
What event of 1920 must have caused President Wilson deep disappointment?
The event of 1920 that must have caused President Wilson deep disappointment was the rejection of the Treaty of Versailles by the United States Senate. Despite Wilson's efforts to promote the treaty and establish the League of Nations, the Senate voted against ratifying it, partly due to concerns about U.S. sovereignty and international entanglements. This setback was a major blow for Wilson, who had invested significant personal and political capital in the treaty's success.
