The cotton gin was created to help speed up production of cotton. They made it easy to pick the cotton away from its branches ( i guess thats what you call it) and was able to do it faster and in large quantities, which was hoped to be used to end slavery. However, slavery was increased, for then southerners could be able to grow more cotton for more profit. In fact, slave population increased.

Help Plzz!!How do you think the framers of the Constitution would respond to the presidency's expanded powers?

slava [35]

The framers of the constitution intended that the Congress would play a major part in the American democracy. They left the president’s power without many boundaries, counting on check and balances as a power to hold the presidency. The framers of the constitution didn’t want the president to be a slave of the Congress, this is the reason probably the framers would be in favor of the presidency’s expanded powers, they wanted a balance between a free man who is stronger than governors but not as free as a monarch.
