PORTFOLIO OUTLINE:
THREE PEOPLE IN AMERICAN HISTORY THAT HAD THE BIGGEST IMPACT IN
WORLD SUPERPOWER DOMINANCE
I.
Introduction
This section will introduce the topic, the thesis and the major issues the essay will be concerned
about.
Thesis: United States of America dominance as a superpower occurred in a sequence of events,
mainly those controlled by President Woodrow Wilson, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt,
and President Harry S. Truman, who organized the three historic events, engagement in the First
World War, retaliation against the Pearl Habour attack by Japan, and dropping of the atomic
bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima respectively.
II.
President Woodrow Wilson and the engagement in world war one
A. President Wilson declared that US engagement into the war was for restoring peace and
not for waging war. This decision alienated US from the rest of the parties in the war. It
prevented the other countries from attacking the US.
B. The president took time before engaging in the war, only engaging in the war at a time
when it was becoming tough for the war to end.
C. The decision to engage in the war for purposes of bringing it to an end also helped in
giving the US peace and time to continue producing food and equipment, which they sold
to the other countries engaging in the war.

C. The decision to engage in World War II also helped to show the US position and power

IV.
President Harry S. Truman and the dropping of the atomic bombs on Nagasaki and
Hiroshima
A. The dropping of the bombs helped to show that world that the US was ready to engage in
war with any country that defied international rules and regulations.

US citizens, especially attacks orchestrated by Japan, like the Pearl Harbor attack.
