{ ~[moodle]Anti-Federalists' fear of a government which would take too much control, creating a fortress in the District of Columbia and using the army to oppress the citizens, was overcome by the mere inclusion of George Washington as President. He had assumed powers when necessary, and had relinquished them when the job was done. ~[moodle]The reasoned arguments of John Jay, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton, writing under the name Publius in what became known as the Federalist Papers convinced the ratifying conventions of the required number of states to eventually approve the Constitution. ~[moodle]The founding fathers' concept of immortality was very different than what many people consider immortality and fame today. They wanted to be remembered in a favorable way to the generations, their posterity, that would live many years after they had passed away.

{ ~[moodle]Gordon Wood argued for a loose definition of the term "revolution", and concluded that the changes following the American Revolution were indeed radical in nature. ~[moodle]Your textbook authors made statements such as the Declaration of Independence and its ideals being "the most famous statement ever made in American public life". They also claimed that the result of the constitutional debates in the aftermath of the war created "a federal Constitution that was, in its own way, truly revolutionary." Both of these statements give support to the radical interpretation. ~[moodle]In the video clip, Pauline Maier showed how throughout history, governments based on the "republic" model had failed to last for any length of time. In essence, the founding fathers were attempting to revive this idea, but this time, adding checks and balances and concepts of freedom and popular voting rights to guarantee success... and this success has continued for over 200 years. Again, her's is another supportive case for the radical definition of the revolution. =[moodle]Your textbook authors are in agreement with the British historical video which stated that since no Indians, blacks, or women were included in the Constitution as viable citizens, since the rich and wealthy remained in power, and that since the United States did not end slavery, that the result of the American War for Independence was a conservative, not radical revolution. ~[moodle]Gary Nash, in his audio interview, concludes that indeed, there were small examples of significant changes that occurred after the revolution, many of which we are still "discovering" today, that lead many people to conclude that despite some shortcomings, the result was radical for its time. } // question: 0 name: Switch category to $course$/Final Exam/computer $CATEGORY: $course$/Final Exam/computer // question: 818298 name: In his Farewell Address, George Washington ::In his Farewell Address, George Washington::[html]In his Farewell Address, George Washington{ ~[moodle]encouraged healthy sectional rivalry.#Incorrect ~[moodle]denounced the actions of the French Republic.#Incorrect ~[moodle]obligated the United States to support antimonarchical revolutions in the Western Hemisphere.#Incorrect ~[moodle]encouraged the development of political parties.#Incorrect =[moodle]warned against entangling foreign alliances and partisan domestic politics.#Correct } // question: 0 name: Switch category to $course$/Final Exam/my mc $CATEGORY: $course$/Final Exam/my mc // question: 818371 name: In order to quell the people's fears that the aftermath of the presidential election of 1800 would bring about bloodshed, similar to that of the French Revolution, who said the following? “Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle.

The statistics cited by the British documentary video on the American Revolution were not in complete agreement with those in our textbook. Moreover, the disagreements in data in the video almost always resulted in a more positive or less negative view of the British participation in the conflict. This is yet another example to support your instructor's belief that it is extremely important to discover the bias or point of view present in the historical sources you are using to determine the truth about the past.

The video clip, a story read by the instructor in class, and the textbook included differing interpretations of President John Adams and Matthew Lyon, the man with the fireplace tongs, pictured in this cartoon. Regardless of the interpretation, the federal legislation in question are the Alien and Sedition Acts and results of its enforcement.

This cartoon from the American Revolution clearly depicts the British tactical failure of the frontal assault in warfare.  This snake, representing both the British Redcoats, as well as their Hessian allies, fails to take the high ground occupied by the Patriots (shown as the hill in the background).  The battle most clearly indicative of this type of strategic failure was the Battle of Bunker Hill, where the colonists waited to fire their muskets until they could "see the whites of their eyes".
