During his five years as chief US policy-maker towards Puerto Rico, Ernest Gruening strove to create a model - based on the anti-imperialist principles he had outlined in the 1920s - for a reformist policy which the United States could pursue towards the rest of Latin America. The initial support of Franklin Roosevelt allowed Gruening to position his Puerto Rican programme as one of the three ideological alternatives present in the early stages of the Good Neighbour Policy. The collapse of Gruening's scheme provided US policymakers with an early illustration of the difficulty of imposing reform with insufficient local support
