AHC and Effects of no Spanish-American War

How do you prevent the Spanish-American War from happening and what butterflies could it produce?

Is this an attempt to butterfly the Presidency of Teddy Roosevelt!?! You can't kill the power of Theodore.

Seriously I wonder if his tenure as Police Commissioner and sub-cabinet experience and his connections are enough to get him to the New York Governor's Mansion (without his war hero status)?

I was actually more interested in a somewhat less pacific oriented United States (with out the Philippines and all).

But that actually is also an interesting idea. ^_^

Don't have the USS Maine blow up or have it blow up in an American port

Butterflies would include a change in WW2 since without the US owning the Philippines and Guam that would change US and Japan's relationship in the western Pacific

If Spain was in Philippines, would Japan even take on Russia over Korea, or would she go South and go after Spain?
