Why did many americans oppose u. s. participation in world war ii?

Following World War I, there was a very high number of deaths. The United States especially did not want to have a World War II. A lot of people thought it was Europe’s problem to be resolved only by them. For this reason, America went into isolationism. Eventually, Japan began directly attacking the United States with bombs. This prompted the U.S to step up and join the war.

patriotism is when people have love and devotion for their country.

explanation:

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
