What does the repetition of the word "neutral" throughout "How We Entered World War I" emphasize?

Repeating “neutral” emphasizes the United States’ official position before it entered the war: it was trying to stay out of the conflict. This matches the choice about the U.S. stance in its attempt to remain isolated from World War I. The repetition does not mainly describe the author’s bias or Wilson’s ability to mobilize the country.
