If I argue under your false premise, morale is irrelevant when you had the untouched, unattached industrial might of the US compared to the other countries in WWII. Furthermore, your premise is false because of the fact that Pearl Harbor was not 100% necessary to bring the US into the war, we were already on our way with lend-lease and the DRAFT HAD STARTED IN SEPTEMBER OF 1940, a full year before Pearl Harbor. Beyond that, the propaganda department of the US would have stirred everyone up into a frenzy where the people would have been volunteering anyway. Lastly, according to the National WWII Museum, 61.2% of the military were drafted, leaving 38.8% as volunteers. So the draft was a huge part of getting soldiers for WWII anyway.

Considering Roosevelt was president for a while why didn't these propagandistic superheroes just magic the public into war in 40 or 39?
There were a fuckton of volunteers after Pearl Harbour, good luck making American be fine with the draft if there is not that massive wave of volunteers.
