What prevented roosevelt from responding to british appeals for help in 1940?

In 1940, President Roosevelt was forced to respond only minimally (and creatively, at that) to British appeals for help because of the isolationist state-of-mind of the American people and leaders. Most Americans were against American involvement in the European war; thus, for Roosevelt to act on his own initiative would both betray his service to the majority and likely prevent his getting re-elected in the coming election.
