Discussion 2 requires no references and must be put in your own words it is an opinion question

 America's involvement in the Great War has been frequently debated. Should America have entered the war sooner to help its allies? Should America have avoided the conflict all together? Some say the sale of American goods to the allied nations prolonged the war, others say that American supplies were the only life-line available to the desperate Allied Powers. What do you think? 

Discussion 3

respond to this student post leigh

I think America should have joined the war sooner. Their were many lives lost and the war was more than likely prolonged due to Americas early involvement. America was pretty much a super power during this time in history. I think American supplies made a positive difference in helping to end the war and supplying a win for the good side. Over all America should have joined the war sooner because their influence could have made difference in the amount of lives lost.
