In the aftermath of WW2 America was hegemonic. It's only rival the Soviet Union was severely damaged by the war and lacked nuclear weapons technology for several years.
What if American leadership realizes that the UN peace-through-diplomacy model is a farce and that the existence of nuclear weapons puts civilization in mortal peril so long as there are multiple competing governments? What if the Washington DC establishment decides that the time has come to put an end to war and once and for all, and to unite the world under one progressive world government?
It wouldn't be an easy task and there would be a lot of resistance and casualties. But, looking at the world today, it's obvious that a world government in which all were citizens would be better. Especially since Washington politics would probably be more progressive. Because whiles Republicans and Democrats are evenly split in America, Democrats are far more popular then Republicans abroad.
