Answer: Your answer would be the "Big Stick" policy.

Explanation: When Mr. Roosevelt was elected in 1906, he adopted the "Big Stick" policy which is best defined by the phrase "Speak softly and carry a big stick" which basically means that be peaceful but if that dose not work. Have a strong force to back you up.
