Causes of the Revolutionary War

The American people were strongly independent. They wanted to do things for themselves. Great Britain was a long way away. The American people didn't want people an ocean away telling them how to live their lives.
The British government decided to make the American colonies pay a large share of the war debt from the French and Indian War.
Through the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and other taxes, the British tried to collect taxes that the American people considered harsh.
The American people also thought that they should be able to send their own people to Britain's Parliament or at least vote for Britain's lawmakers.
The combination of the harsh taxes and the lack of an American voice in Parliament gave rise to the famous phrase "taxation without representation."
Patrick Henry, Thomas Paine, and others called for an independent America, colonies free from British rule and interference.
Americans started stockpiling guns and ammunition in violation of British laws. Their defense of such a stockpile led to the shots fired at Lexington and Concord and the beginning of the Revolutionary War.

What are some foreign issues with the reform party? 
faltersainse [42]

Respect for the sovereignty of all nations means that the United States will first try to use equitable trade practices before considering imposition of our will on other nations through economic, diplomatic, or military means, except as a last resort when that nation poses a clear and present threat to our national security and prosperity.

We have long term national interest in supporting nations that respect the basic dignity and rights of their citizens. This national interest also includes, when REQUESTED, assistance in building and maintaining freedom and prosperity, which helps reduce anti-American sentiment.

A fiscally responsible foreign policy means accepting the fact that not every good we wish to do is a good that we can afford to do. Furthermore, the US will look to help poorer nations, and/or those struck by disaster, by assisting in the improvement of infrastructure and industry through use of unbalanced trade that will be renegotiated on a regular basis as the beneficiary nation’s situation improves.

Why was it so important to retain control of San Antonio, Texas?
Sedbober [7]
San Antonio was the seat of power for the Tejas area. Even though, Texas was not an individual state (it was part of the larger state of Coahuila y Tejas) it still had and did many of the things that other states did. THE size and population of Texas demanded that it have a more local regional government than the one located hundreds of miles away in Coahuila. The city became even more sought after during the Revolution. Santa Anna thought that taking San Antonio would help to squash the rebellion. However the Battle of the Alamo became an inspiration for the Texians and Tejanos fighting for freedom.
