Wilson entered politics in 1910 when New Jersey noses, needing a respectable ?front? candidate for the governorship, offered him the nomination. They expected to lead the academic novice by the nose, but to their surprise, Wilson waged a passionate reform campaign in which he assailed the ?predatory? trusts and promised to return state government to the people. He was the ?schoolmaster in politics?. When the Democrats met at Baltimore in 1912, Wilson was nominated with William Jennings Bryan on his side. Wilson?s platform was the ?new freedom? program which included calls for stronger antitrust legislation, banking reform, and tariff reductions.

At the same time, aggressive Americans like Theodore Roosevelt and Congressman Henry Cabot Lodge were interpretation Darwinism to mean that the earth belonged to the strong and the fit- Uncle Sam.
