Answer:
Britain had prohibited the production of cannon in the colonies, and yet when the American rebellion broke out in April 1775, the Continental Navy seems to have had little trouble acquiring the 10 guns fitted out in its first ship, the procured merchant ship Black Prince rechristened Alfred, in October. The original source was, of course, arms stolen or captured. The greatest windfall for the fledgling Continental Army came on May 9, 1775, when Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen surprised and seized Fort Ticonderoga, after which John Knox transported them to Boston, where they made it possible to drive the British out in March 1776. Those guns were then adapted for a variety of uses, both on land or aboard ship. Another windfall occurred when Esek Hopkins, with Alfred and seven other ships as well as 200 Continental Marines, landed at Nassau in the Bahamas on March 3, 1776, secured the town the next day and spent the next two weeks gathering up all the guns and ammunition they could carry off. Throughout the war, the privateers as well as Continental Navy ships seized whatever British vessels they could overpower, motivated by a bounty on captured cannon from the Continental Congress. Such acquisitions went both ways, of course—whenever the Continental Army suffered a major defeat or a Continental ship was captured, the British often got some of their guns back.

Answer:
The Democratic Party was the party of slavery, and is the party of unequal treatment based on race, rather than equal opportunity based on merit.
Explanation:
Andrew Jackson was related to the Democratic Party, as it was widely known with it's history of impeding on people's rights based on skin-color or national origin. He also was the embodiment of many of the beliefs of the Democratic Party. Firstly, he embraced the usage of slavery, and was a ardent holder of slaves. The Democratic Party had always worked for keeping the institution of slavery as a means of not only workforce and profit, but also as a way to degrade "non-whites" into being second-class humans, (also commonly known as sub-humans). Piggy-backing off of the issue of slavery, Jackson also campaigned against many of the Native American tribes that were located to the west of the then-US, starting wars and taking lands from the defeated Native American tribes. Again, the Native American tribes were classified as sub-humans, and did not receive any benefits that would generally be implied to a white-US citizen.
This led to the unpopularity of Jackson within the Whig-Republican circles, and he was succeeded by Martin van Buren.
Humanists believe that people are free to think for themselves.
