New Englanders opposed the War of 1812; most Whigs denounced the Mexican-American War launched by the Democratic president James K. Polk; and both the Union and the Confederacy were internally divided during the Civil War. Wilson's closest adviser, Col. Edward House, was from Texas; his physician, Dr. Cary Grayson, and Wilson's wife, Edith, who together effectively ran the government after Wilson suffered a severe stroke in 1919, were from Virginia. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR, every military conflict in which the United States has taken part has generated an anti-war movement. Hochschild relates how, when the United States joined the conflict against Germany and its allies in 1917, "war fever swept the land.". [Extracted from the article]
