The answer is Patrick Henry. During the first Continental Congress, Samuel Adams and Patrick Henry believe that going to war with Britain is unavoidable. Both wanted to be armed and fight with the Britains to achieve total freedom. It is their advocacy to fight for true liberty. It is Patrick Henry's statement "Give me liberty or give me death" that made a mark.

Answer:

At the First Continental Congress, colonists such as Samuel Adams and Patrick Henry were willing to go to war with Great Britain, though most colonists hoped that war could be avoided.

Explanation:

The First Continental Congress was the Assembly in Philadelphia in the fall of 1774, representing the twelve of the thirteen British colonies in North America that later founded the United States.  

It was preceded by the Intolerable Acts enacted by the British Parliament in the spring of 1774, which had punished the Massachusetts colony for the Boston Tea Party. The organization of the Congress was the responsibility of the Committees of Correspondence in the various colonies. The Congress opened in Philadelphia on September 5, 1774. A total of 56 representatives from twelve colonies were present. The majority in Congress were radicals who called themselves Patriots. Their leaders were Samuel and John Adams, Patrick Henry and Richard Henry Lee, who were in favor of breaking ties with Britain and prepare for battle. However, few at this stage were in favor of this idea, and the predominant attitude was still caution.

Finally, the Continental Congress approved a declaration calling for citizens' rights to life, liberty, property, assembly and jury trials, condemning taxation without representation and the presence of British troops in the colonies without their own approval.

Madison believed that the U.S. had to go to war with british for all of the following reasons except
eimsori [14]

Answer:

  • Get the British to revoke their Orders in Council, which placed harsh trade restrictions on the Americans.
  • Get the British to stop the impressment of American sailors into the Royal Navy.
  • Defend Americans' rights to freedom of the seas .

Explanation:

<u>The Impressment of Sailors</u>

Impressment of sailors was the operation of Britain's Royal Navy of sending officers to board American ships, examine its crew, and seize the sailors that were found guilty of being runaways from British ships.  

occurrences of impressment are often recognized as one of the causes of the War of 1812. And while it is true that impressment occurred on a regular basis in the first decade of the 19th century, the exercises was not always seen as a awfully significant problem.

It was widely known that vast numbers of British sailors did abandon from British warships, frequently because of the hard regulations and miserable surroundings endured by seamen in the Royal Navy.  

The impressment of sailors was definitely one of the causes of the War of 1812.

<u>Trade Restrictions of the Americans</u>

With the early Englishmen that settled in Jamestown, Virginia, and Plymouth, Massachusetts, England did little to direct their trade. As the colonies got more prosperous, however, England began to enforce its mercantile ideologies. A string of laws were passed in 1660s known as the Navigation Acts. They were established to make the Americans depend on the manufactured products of England. The colonists, of course, were expected to buy more from England than they sold and pay the gap(difference) in gold and silver. Therefore, England forbade all non-English ships from trading with colonies.

<u>Freedom of the seas</u>

A challenge to the discipline of freedom of the seas arose soon after the conclusion of the revolutionary war. In 1784,  American commercial shipping in the Mediterranean, lacking the shielding of he British navy, came under attack from the North African Kingdoms along what was known as the Barbary Coast.

<u>EXCEPT</u>

<u><em>The federalists opposed the war</em></u>, they viewed the war as way to further the interests of the Republicans. The federalists also feared that the war would through the nation into the arms of the Napoleon.
