Wilson justifies the U.S. entry into war “for a universal dominion of right by such a concert of free peoples as shall bring peace and safety to all nations and make the world itself at last free.”
He declares “our object now” for a “concert of purpose and action” among like-minded nations dedicated to peace and justice. 

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) he wanted to help design the peace treaty.

In asking Congress to declare war, Wilson said, “The world must be made safe for democracy.” This statement suggests that Wilson wanted to go to war because he wanted to help design the peace treaty.

Woodrow Wilson decided that the policy of neutrality was not an option for the United States after the interception of the Zimmerman telegraph, in which Germany asked Mexico's help to fight World War 1, and them with the sinking of the Lusitania ship.

After the Allies won the war, US President Wilson played an active role in searching a good agreement for permanent peace in Europe and established his famous "Fourteen Points." He also was a promoter for the creation of the League of Nations, but at the end, the US decided not to participate in the League.
