Author and historian H.W. Brands : Charles Lindbergh became face of opposition to American intervention in World War II .

He says he eschewed politics, considered politics this low and sort of mean occupation that he wanted to have nothing to do with.

Brands: Some accused him of being an antisemite or an American Nazi sympathizer.

H.W. Brands : The charges of antisemitism against Lindbergh are associated with a single speech he gave in the autumn of 1941 .

He identified three groups that, in his opinion, were most influential in pushing the U.S. toward war, he says.

He was most critical of the Roosevelt administration because he claimed that Roosevelt was using the excuse of the war to further his own political ambitions.
