The founding fathers were justified in rebelling against the British government and declaring independence. I think that the British government's actions were unfair to the colonists, and the colonists had the right to rebel against them. Some evidence that shows why some people favored independence was because the taxation policies were unfair to the colonists, and the colonists also had no representation in Parliament. Yes some people did oppose the independence and some of the evidence of this was because the American colonists paid lower taxes than people in British, and they thought Parliament represented everyone in the empire.

According to the Americans, the British soldiers fired first at Lexington Green. John Bateman a British soldier said ”I never heard any of the inhabitants so much as fire one gun on said troops” (Document 3). Sylvanus Wood recollected that the British captain said “Lay down your arms, you damn’d rebels Or you are all dead men---fire” (Document 4). The colonist’s description was long and descriptive of what happened before and after nevertheless the fact that a British soldier said that the colonists’ did not fire turns the odds more towards the colonists’. Captain John Parker of the colonial Militia stated “...I immediately ordered my Militia to disperse and not fire”(Document 6). Thomas Fessenden a colonial onlooker recollects “...the second officer, who was two rods behind him, fired a pistol at said Militia, and the regulars kept huzzaing” (Document 1). These other two documents are testimonies that testify that the British fired

As Democratic-Republicans, Jefferson and Madison favored the strict construction of the constitution. This meant that they were to follow exactly what the documents and the constitution state. During their presidencies, they sometimes desired to do something politically that wasn’t allowed by the constitution, so instead they would favor the loose interpretation to be able to accomplish their political goals. They favor either side that accommodated them most at a specific moment. On the other hand, the Federalist would also change their position on their interpretation of the constitution.

The population of the U.S. was four million and nine hundred thousand when Adams was elected president. The election was the first contested one in the country! Ironically, when the final tabulation of ballots arrived at the senate it was Adams (having been President of the Senate at the time) that opened the envelope. John won with seventy-one votes, however, Thomas Jefferson was only five behind him; thus becoming Vice President. Adams obtained every single Electoral College vote from New England while Jefferson ruled the South. Thomas succeeded John’s single term in the office.

Leading up to the period of “the Debaters” (as they are called in the film Congress) the Capital had been completely rebuilt under the supervision of Benjamin Latrobe and Charles Bulfinch. The Capital had new more expansive chambers for each house which were joined by a copper sheathed wooden dome. The period between 1820 and 1860 in congress is characterized by debate and compromise. The spirit of the times is characterized as that of growth and improvement. Gold was found in California, Texas joined the union, we went from having 209 to 21,551 post offices across the country, and our country now spanned all the way to the pacific. As if a testament to this spirit of growth the painter and inventor Samuel F.B. Morse painted the congress in its new quarters to subsidize his new telegraph system. But of course the changes to our Capital are the changes that are least

From the colonial era until the late nineteenth century, the United States was a producer-oriented nation. Simply, most Americans produced what they needed, generating only what their immediate families or villages could use. Farmers—sometimes inaccurately called "subsistence farmers"—grew a variety of crops and vegetables on small acreages, stored what their families could use, and peddled whatever surplus there might be in the nearest town. The raising of livestock usually centered on one or two family dairy cows and some swine and fowl for slaughter. Few large commercial herds existed.

In the post-Civil War United States, corporations grew significantly in number, size and influence.

Lol, wow, well a ding dang doo to that. Actually, in 1930’s Germany there was no Jewish land, it was Palestine. A Palestine occupied by the British, who got that land because the Palestinians helped them fight the Turks in WW1, then stabbed them in the back, who signed a deal with the leaders of the Zionist movement in England to establish a Jewish State in “Palestine”, it was called the Balfour agreement, which by the way the United States was against, read up bro. So, while the Palestinians were welcoming Jewish refugees from Europe with open arms, what they didn’t know was that they were welcoming a snake in the grass. After the Zionist had enough people in Palestine, they made their move and started bombing British barracks, because the
