When did Woodrow Wilson first become the President of the USA?
A.1913
B.1916
C.1920
D.1924

Answer 1

Hint:Woodrow Wilson was born in Staunton, Virginia in 1856 to a devout believer. His father was one of the founders of the Southern Presbyterian Church and Wilson's religious upbringing shaped his political views and worldview. He grew up in Georgia and South Carolina and became the first South African to become president since James Polk in 1848 .

Complete answer:
Wilson became prominent president of 1912 after his election as Governor of New Jersey in 1910 , and his feud with state party officials increased his reputation with the ever-growing organization. In July 1911 , Wilson brought William Gibbs McAdoo and "Colonel" Edward M. Prior to the 1912 Democratic National Convention, Wilson made a concerted effort to win the re-election of three-time Democratic presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan, whose supporters had been the mainstay of the Democratic Party since the 1896 presidential election.
After the election, Wilson elected William Jennings Bryan as Secretary of State, and Bryan gave advice on the remaining members of Wilson's cabinet. William Gibbs McAdoo, a prominent supporter of Wilson who was to marry Wilson's daughter in 1914 , became Finance Secretary, and James Clark McReynolds, who had successfully prosecuted a number of high-profile dishonesty cases, was appointed Attorney General. Publisher Josephus Daniels, a loyal member of the group and a white supremacist from North Carolina, was elected Secretary of the Army, while New York junior attorney Franklin D. Roosevelt served as Navy Assistant Secretary. The chief of staff of Wilson ("secretary") was Joseph Patrick Tumulty, a former political watchman and media liaison officer. The most important and confident foreign policy adviser was "Colonel" Edward M. House; Berg writes that, "in reaching and influencing, [the House] surpassed everyone in Wilson's Cabinet".

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

Note:At age 56 , Woodrow Wilson was sworn in March 1913. He was the last American president to attend a horse-drawn carriage ceremony. As president, Wilson saw America in the midst of World War I, negotiating the Treaty of Versailles and forming the League of Nations, which preceded the United Nations. Her legacy includes hot-tempered middle class reforms, women's voting rights and international peace orders.
