What if Wilson committed suicide because too many news programmes where saying too many things about him?

Whatever may have happened, the consensus is that he's dead 
. The VP would have to take over.

wilson is not dead.
Last night he returned from the dead, rose from his hospital bed, and vowed to follow a plan set out by a man who appeared to him in the afterlife(which one is not specific ;p)
this is who he saw:

Woodrow Wilson shot! Survives!
Following a string of communist attacks and protests, Woodrow Wilson was shot while in Hawaii in June. One bullet went through his left arm, while the other went through his left hip. The incident has left the president paralyzed on his left side, leading to a reduction in public appearances. The Democratic Party has been infuriated by the terrorism of the far left, and has been pushing to increase military presence in cities to reduce squalor. Reaction from the incident has led to a polarization in the Democratic Party, with the party splitting between a more conservative faction, the Hardings, and the more liberal faction, the Wilsonians.
Wilsonians, and the president, have agreed to lift the antiradical bill in order to reduce riots. The Hardings, however, see this as a step in the wrong direction, and aim to block it in congress.

Yay! I consider this a victory in my books! The democratic party is split AND the bill is lifted! Viva la Communism!

He will need a good political stance.

The Indian plot gets a pyrrhic success. Turns out it was the general strike and mass insurrection that ultimately forced the imperialists down. With the democratic party split the Socialists will definitely improve their position which is already strong in opposition as proven from the nationwide uprising. The anti-radical bills have been lifted and America has been turned irreconcilably away from sliding back to conservative capitalism. yup, a victory. If America's going to be capitalist, it will be on terms of the Socialists.

In the meanwhile, the main campaigner of the American Communist Party adhiraj.bose has raised a mass rally in Chicago with factory workers and students to mark the withdrawal of the anti-radical bill. A record one hundred thousand came to the rally despite the heavy rains. There he openly threatened America with civil war should the government decide to go to war with Germany. Likewise should America's government try to force another non-capitalist nation to adopt capitalist civics, we will call nationwide protests and seal off the cities ! The days following this saw more mass rallies as a show of force by America's communists.

I suggest something on behalf of all communists and socialists. I suggest we work together to take out the capitalists (politically not violently),
Step 1: Vote Wilson out of office
Step 2: Once he is eliminated then we shall agree on one candidate that we both agree on.

It was street battles, violent strikes and mass mobilizations that brought Wilson to his heels. We shouldn't give up on this. I say we do both. In any case the communists never went back on elections. We're not anarchists 
. We believe in fighting with whatever weapon is there in our hands, elections are one weapon. We can use it to expose the capitalists as well as try to take power directly. Yes Socialists and Communists must unite, but on what basis ? if the Socialists go soft on the capitalists and prevent more radical reforms then we have something to fight over. We can form a united front for the elections though and a consensus candidate. But a lasting unity would require something more fundamental.

Who knows? Maybe some of the softer socialists will have a few "accidents" or mysteriously disappear. 
I believe that the socialist schism will remain.
Labourists will remember the Democrats' behaviour for a long time and will continue to question fundamental institution. Moreover, they don't trust Socialists, because they don't question the fundamental institutions.
On the other side Socialists and Democrats will remember the far left terrorism (which was halted, it's an unofficial truce, but not terminated). Shouting the president was a big mistake. I believe that at this point Debs will adopt the socialist point of view.
At this point left terrorism, while present will be inactive for the time being. It is a gift for lifting the bill, for the time being.

Just because extremists attacked America in our timeline doesn't mean all Muslims are bad. Heck, my best friend is. I'm just saying because of one stupid extremist doesn't mean all of that party are bad.

Except here most Americans sympathize with such terror tactics, and everybody wanted Wilson dead
