Woodrow Wilson literally wrote and distributed Lost Cause Revisionist History, using his ~~Yale~~ Princeton Historian and Presidential Credentials. Wilson segregated the federal government for the first time in history, refounded the KKK, screened Birth of a Nation at the White House, used the federal government to erect statues of traitors that said they should never be memorialized, and that's just some of his domestic policies.

If I had a time machine I would stop in the 1970s to pick up some real McDonald's burgers and milkshakes. Then take them to Taft in 1911. If Teddy ran against Wilson unopposed, he would have stomped him into the dirt.
