Best Answer


Wilson wished to remain neutral in WW1 to keep from being pulled into the European alliance system, and to keep from making enemies in other countries.
It was believed at the time that it was unnecessary for the US to get involved in European wars, since Europe was separated from the US by the Atlantic Ocean, and was therefore at a safe distance. It would upset a large portion of his country if he chose sides. He won re-election with the slogan , "He kept us out of war", so the people seemed to be behind him.
