It is January 1776 and you have read Thomas Paine's Common Sense, which has just been published. You are New Jersey's delegate t
o the Continental Congress but you have yet to decide if independence from the British Crown is a good idea. You must communicate to your fellow delegates why you are not ready to vote in favor of independence. What do you tell them? Your response should be at least 300 words and it must draw on Seabury's work or one of the authors in "Loyalists arguments."
