Presidents have to maneuver
“Carefully on politically hot issues, and women's suffrage was no exception. The movement had been growing for decades. Despite a history of hostility to their cause, Wilson soon saw the political handwriting on the wall.
![Page 88: Imperialism & Progressivism Arguments for Annexing the Philippines](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e5f5503460f94b59503/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
Gradually, he began modifying

Harry Burn, 24 yrs.
• One young legislator, had voted with the anti-suffrage forces to that time. But his mother had urged that he vote for the amendment and for suffrage. When he saw that the vote was very close, and with his anti-suffrage vote would be tied 48 to 48, he decided to vote as his mother had urged him: for the right of women to vote. And so on August 18, 1920, Tennessee became the 36th and deciding state to ratify.
