The phrase "Remember the Maine!" galvanized public opinion in the United States just before the Spanish-American War by rallying citizens around the cause of intervention in Cuba. It referred to the sinking of the USS Maine in Havana Harbor, which many Americans blamed on Spain, despite the lack of conclusive evidence. This slogan stoked nationalistic fervor and resentment towards Spain, contributing to a surge in support for military action and ultimately leading to the war. The phrase became a rallying cry that unified the public sentiment in favor of aggressive foreign policy.

What did you see before you were born?

A short glib answer would be "nothing whatsoever", largely because your eyes were shut and there was little or no light to see by while you were developing in the womb before you were born, but also that your brain was not wired in such a way as to be able to remember. However, if you believe in reincarnation, then you had several previous lives and have been born and died several times over during your time of existence in this universe, or even in other universes, so you must have seen a lot of things during those experiences - the only problem being that you do not remember them (or maybe you do remember them, or maybe you are merely deluded into believing that you remember them).

Who was not an outstanding American leader during the nations war years?

Mr. Magoo and Mickey Mouse. I know you want a real answer but I don't know which kind of leaders you mean or which wars you are talking about. I would say our worst leader during Viet Nam were President Nixon and Lyndon Johnson. General MacArthur lost his glory in the Korean War. As for our current war I would say the current president but remember this is a personal opinion not the opinion of others and the answers corporation.
