Say what you will about Woodrow Wilson but if there's one thing for certain, the man was a racist.
And given how he was the first US President to screen a film at the White House (and that film was of course Birth of a Nation) I had this idea come to mind...
What if sometime after he became enraptured by racial dogma of the film post-screening as he did IOTL, Woodrow Wilson went out and promptly and publicly joined the DC Chapter of the Ku Klux Klan while at the same time imploring other Democrats in Washington to do follow suit.
How would this effect both his and the overall status of the Presidency domestically?
What other major political figures could he plausibly get to join him?
