–FDR from a radio speech; September 3, 1939; the day Britain and France declared war on Germany

"The United States should not become involved in European wars."
Many Americans were still recovering from World War I and struggling with the Great Depression. They believed their country should remain neutral in the war in Europe.
The aviator Charles Lindbergh stated his hope that “the future of America . . . not be tied to these eternal wars in Europe.” Lindbergh asserted that “Americans [should] fight anybody and everybody who attempts to interfere with our hemisphere.” However, he also said, “Our safety does not lie in fighting European wars. It lies in our own internal strength, in the character of the American people and American institutions.” Like many isolationists, Lindbergh believed that democracy would not be saved “by the forceful imposition of our ideals abroad, but by example of their successful operation at home.”
