A need for cheap labor, Economic competition w/ nations & political/military competition with other nations spurred US imperialism
It depends upon your reading of the question. In the US, it is typically argued that the Spanish-American War of 1898 was the United States' first foray into Imperialism. The victory over Spain, led to the first US extracontinental colonies: Puerto Rico and the Philippines. However, less than a decade after the Spanish-American War, the American population became incrasingly isolationist. When World War I broke out, the United States stayed out of the war for the first three years and remained out of the early part of World War II. However, World War II (1941-1945 for the US) led to a permanent change in US foreign policy that led to a more imperialist and expansionary foreign policy. The three wars of Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq are most closely associated with this new emergence of the US as an imperialist world power.
