The purpose of Wilson's Fourteen Points was to show other nations what the USA believed should be part of post-WWI. He also wanted to show other nations that although the USA wasn't a part of most of the war, it would be a major force in the treaty.

confine himself to enforcing laws passed by congress
Roger Sherman believed the President should be appointed by the legislature, because he saw the Presidency as an office whose sole duty was to carry out what Congress decreed. He felt that the President should not be accountable to anyone but Congress since he would be in effect Congress's agent and Congress has the supreme power of government.
the Vice president should submit his resignation to the President
The one point that President Wilson would not sacrifice was the principle of national self-determination. He believed that people should have the right to choose their own political, economic, and social systems, free from outside interference. This principle guided his approach to international relations, particularly in the aftermath of World War I.
Most Americans did not want to join the war... In fact, Woodrow Wilson (the president during WW1) wanted to be neutral, isolated instead of go into war.
Initially, internationalists believed that the United States should remain neutral. Later on, however, they believed that the USA should enter the war on the side of the allies.
President Andrew Jackson believed that all Native Americans should live on reservations. He actually did his best to make that happen.
Woodrow Wilson said he believed that Germany should be punished for the War but in a way that would lead to reconciliation in Europe instead of revenge.
YOu should know.
President Woodrow Wilson was very ambivalent about taking the U.S. into World War I. Not until the sinking of the Lusitania "forced his hand" did Wilson take the U.S. to war. Thus, U.S. involvement in WW I lasted just from 1917 to its end in 1918.

In 1900, Woodrow Wilson wrote about the executive branch of the US government and the role of a US president in foreign affairs. Wilson believed that when foreign affairs dominated the policies of the nation, the US president should have a dominating role. He wrote that the US Chief Executive must by necessity be the nation's guide. In the form of initial judgments and steps of action required. The president had the duty of supplying the US Congress as to why certain steps were required. In large measure the president needs the power to deal with foreign issues.In 1918 however, Wilson's international plans for a peace ending WW 1 fell into the hands of the US Senate which rejected most of Wilson's plans for the coming years.
Before Woodrow Wilson was elected to the US presidency he believed that the Senate should play an intimate role in helping the US president to handle treaties. His views were clear and strong. After he became the US president however, he changed his mind. As president Wilson decided to look at his past statements as perhaps being too one sided on the issue of Senate cooperation. When WW 1 ended he took on his role as a negotiator of the Versailles Treaty with no contact with the US Senate. Wilson would find out that the Senate would make all his labors to bring nothing as the Senate by a wide margin voted against the Versailles Treaty.
