Many paleoconservatives identify themselves as "classical conservatives" and trace their philosophy to the [[Old Right]] Republicans of the interwar period, which helped keep the U.S. out of the [[League of Nations]], reduced immigration with the passage of the Immigration Act of 1924, and opposed [[Franklin Roosevelt]]'s [[New Deal]]. They were [[isolationists]] who opposed entry into [[World War II]].
