Whether or not someone can be considered a "good president" is purely subjective.

Some of his greatest achievements were to mobilize a nation that had a poorly trained, undermanned and under-equiped military into a fighting force that helped win the First World War. Wilson was an isolationist, and believed that America should remain neutral in the "war to end all wars" But his opinion began to change after a German U-Boat RMS Lusitania, a killing One thousand one hundred ninety-eight people, many of them American.

The intervention of over 2 million American forces helped to end a stalemate that had dragged on for 5 years, and forced the Germans to sign the Treaty of Versailles, ending the war.
He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919.

Wilson also passed a new law prohibiting child labor (a common practice at the time); another limited railroad workers to an eight-hour day.

In my opinion, Woodrow Wilson was a good president.

He had some good aspirations but in my opinion he wasn't so good.
During his administration Wilson started C.P.I.(Committe for Public Information) the governments first public relations machine designed with the help of Edward Bernays (considered the "Father of Modern Public Relations") who coined the term "Manufacturing Consent". They used this office to incite the American public into supporting the United States to go into WWI under the disguise of "spreading democracy", a system still used today. This step, of course, has lead to the use of "think tanks" to form policy.
