Political Cartoon



In this cartoon, President Wilson of the United States is sitting writting up a declaration of war to congress. In his left hand he is holding a news article of American ships sinking without any warning killing Americans. The cartoonist uses the sinking of the Lusitania and Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare to get congress to declare war and allow the United States to join in on World War One. I really like this cartoon because i feel like it is just one of the many reason for the United States to get involved in the war and i feel like we were right for joining the war effort and defeating the Central Powers.
