Lets look at Wilson. This men had more people arrested and put to jail in a couple of years, than Mussolini had in all of the 1920's. In his last couple of years he violated more civil liberties than Mussolini in his first decade. He had a propaganda ministry, and went after the press with his goons. He was convinced that the state could create a better society, and hated most of the founding fathers, and the checks and balances of the constitution. This was also a men who loved power and said that by giving blacks the right to vote was "the foundation of every evil in this country" and "true leader uses the masses like tools." You can also look at the CPI, WBI, EA, APL, and Wilsons sedition act, to see what this men was really about. If that is not enough, why don't you pick up one of Wilsons favorite books, "The promise of American life" where Herbert Croly talks about the need for mobilizing society like an army, contempt for parliamentary democracy, and a need for a non-Marxist Socialism. This is the book where after reading it, Wilson said that he wished he was better able to get Croly's advice to his fellow countrymen.Wilson was as close to a socialist dictator as this country has had, until 2008.
