)The excerpt below comes from a speech given by President Woodrow Wilson in 1917: The world must be made safe for democracy. Its peace must be planted upon the tested foundations of political liberty. We have no selfish ends to serve. We desire no conquest, no dominion. We seek no indemnities for ourselves, no material compensation for the sacrifices we shall freely make. We are but one of the champions of the rights of mankind. We shall be satisfied when those rights have been made as secure as the faith and the freedom of nations can make them. What was the purpose of this speech?

Respuesta :

The purpose of this speech was most likely to raise the spirits of the public and also to rally them against a perceived similar cause. When president Woodrow Wilson says “we shall be satisfied when those rights have been made as secure...” the idea of togetherness and unity against one cause (in this case, one would assume, fighting for freedom and making sure America is not ‘torn apart’ by politics) is made even more prevalent. This is most likely what the intended message of this speech was.
