The correct answer to this open question is the following.
I am going to choose the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
The three specific arguments in favor of why this Amendment is necessary in a democratic society are the following.
1.- One of the most important characteristics of modern democratic societies is that citizens are free. Without freedom, there is no democracy.
2.- People have their own set of belief systems and they will always have them. It is intrinsic to human nature. No matter what religion people profess, it is their right.
3.- The right to assemble in a peaceful way to exchange ideas, no matter what kind of ideas, it's part of any democratic government and society in the world.
The two arguments against why this Amendment may no longer be necessary in today's America.
1.- It is so implicit that citizens have rights that will come a day in which this value of liberty would have no need to be part of a Bill of Rights.
2.- Science and the use of logic could be a substitute for the ingraining belief that people need religion to have something to believe in. When science could be able to explain it all through the use of reason, maybe there won't be the necessity to include freedom of religion as part of the Bill of Rights.
American militia fighting on their own soil was arguably the largest technical factor in them winning the war. Americans knew the land they fought on, and therefore knew the best routes to take for supplies, troop movements, and where the British may have been hiding. American militias hired <em>frontiersmen</em>, men who had grown up in the woods and knew how to hunt and travel in them, to fight on their side of the war. This allowed for a huge advantage over the British in the ground battles of the war.
Americans also had something that the British did not: patriotism. The Americans knew that, if they did not win the war, they would have to go back to living under the unfair British rule, if they did not die that is. Americans were able to use this spirit to fight their war harder than the British did.
Americans did not fight England's war. They disregarded the European ideas of a gentleman's war and fought, as the British considered them, dirty. The Americans shot and killed commanding officers, shot and killed their horses, attacked at night and during meal and tea times, and other war strategies that went against how the British had been taught to fight their whole life. This gave Americans a large edge over the British in individual battles.
Having weathered this crisis, Necker continued to serve the monarchy until September 1790, when he resigned his position and retired to a château in Switzerland. He died there on April 9, 1804.
