Answer:

Christmas was so inconsequential in early America that after the Revolutionary War, Congress didn't even bother taking the day off to celebrate the holiday, deciding instead to hold its first session on Christmas Day, 1789.

Answer:

At Christmas play and make cheer

For Christmas comes but once a year

snowy house

Bedecked with Christmas garlands and rare December snow, Christiana Campbell's Tavern invites Colonial Williamsburg visitors within its doors to enjoy a traditional Virginia holiday menu.

Good bread and good drink, a good fire in the hall

Brawn, pudding and souse, and good mustard withall:

Beef, mutton and pork, shred pies of the best:

Pig, veal, goose and capon and turkey well drest:

Cheese, apples and nuts, jolly carols to hear,

As then in the country is counted good cheer.

Thomas Tusser (c. 1520-1580)

Christmas is come, hang on the pot,

Let spits turn round, and ovens be hot;

Beef, pork, and poultry, now provide

To feast thy neighbors at this tide;  

Then wash all down with good wine and beer,  

And so with mirth conclude the Year.

Virginia Almanac (Royle) 1765

What are the advantages and disadvantages of having the presidentchosen by the people rather than the legislature?​
quester [9]

Answer:

If/when chosen by the people you get a more appealing outcome.

Because... The determining factors are YOUR family, friends, and town-folk. It's the people you grew up with. So you all are aware of the same problems in your city/state and you are more than likely both thinking of the same solution. Where as, if chosen by a legislature, you have a bunch of well paid senators who may not see all the things normal people do since they work and live indoors and nowhere near the problems most of the time. They don't care for the middle to lower classes. Most just care about the rich and how to make themselves better and wealthier. It sucks to see, and even more to be living in this kind of world but it's just how it is.
