Wilsons policy is known as the Moral Diplomacy. Moral Diplomacy was based on democratic ideals instead of money or military power or force. It introduced the idea that all countries had the right to decide on their own government- free of control from another country.But while Wilson said he wasn't gonna use force he used force anyway, In fact he used more force than Roosevelt or Taft. For example in the Haiti and Dominican Republic Wilson hoped "to cultivate the friendship and deserve the confidence" of Latin America, but he also emphasized that he believed "just government" must rest "upon the consent of the governed." Sometimes democracy was not the people's choice! In 1915, Wilson responded to revolution in Haiti by sending in American marines to restore order, and he did the same in the Dominican Republic in 1916. The military occupations that followed failed to create the democratic states.
