All are famous phrases that sparked the AMERICAN REVOLUTION. In the view of many colonists, British rule suppressed political, economic, and religious freedoms. Many of those that hesitated to support independence were soon convinced by the passionate words of THOMAS PAINE, SAMUEL ADAMS, PATRICK HENRY, and eventually JOHN ADAMS and Thomas Jefferson. The Declaration of Independence in 1776, the American Revolution, and the creation of the Articles of Confederation represent the American colonies' first attempt to become a nation. This incubation was tentative at best, but ultimately led to success.

Henry Clay was known for his skill in negotiation. Clay himself is oftentimes referred to as "The Great Negotiator" for his skill in bringing both sides together in Congress to pass laws. The Missouri Compromise was one of his crowning achievements wherein Missouri was to enter the Union as a slave state; however, Northerners felt that would tip the balance in Congress. Clay and others negotiated an outcome where Massachusetts would give up what is now Maine, which would then be made a free state in the North.
