Well, they kinda gave up on using military power leading up to WW1, if that makes sense.

Explanation:

This is because Roosevelt was an expansionist, who brought Panama, the Philippines, and Hawaii under U.S. Control.

While Taft was an isolationist, whose policies were on the contrary to Roosevelt's.

Then comes Wilson, who wanted to stay out of WW1 and to stay out of "European squabbles".

The primary accomplishment of the First Continental Congress was a compact among the colonies to boycott British goods beginning on December 1, 1774 unless parliament should rescind the Intolerable Acts. ... Committees of observation and inspection were to be formed in each Colony to ensure compliance with the boycott.

hope this helped! :)
