Why was Jefferson chosen to write the Decleration of independence?

History
1 answer:
RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
5 0

C. He had proven his profound writing skills

Explanation:

  • John Adams was the leader of Independence advocates, which was unanimously confirmed on July 2. A committee of five had already devised an official declaration that would be ready when Congress voted on independence. The term "declaration of independence" is not used in the document itself.
  • Adams persuaded the committee to select Thomas Jefferson to create the original concept of the document, which Congress would later edit to create the final version. The declaration ultimately provided a formal explanation for why Congress voted to declare independence from the United Kingdom more than a year after the outbreak of the American War of Independence. The nation's birthday, Independence Day, is celebrated on July 4, though Adams wanted it to be July 2.
  • After signing the document on July 4, Congress released the Declaration of Independence in multiple forms.
  • Adams convinced Jefferson to write the Declaration, saying that Jefferson is 10 times better writer than he is.

How did the US respond to Mosaddeq attempt to take control of Iran’s oil for themselves?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

The took it for themselves kind of.

Explanation:

On Aug. 19, 1953, elements inside Iran organized and funded by the Central Intelligence Agency and British intelligence services carried out a coup d’état that overthrew the government of Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh. Historians have yet to reach a consensus on why the Eisenhower administration opted to use covert action in Iran, tending to either emphasize America’s fear of communism or its desire to control oil as the most important factor influencing the decision. Using recently declassified material, this article argues that growing fears of a “collapse” in Iran motivated the decision to remove Mossadegh. American policymakers believed that Iran could not survive without an agreement that would restart the flow of oil, something Mossadegh appeared unable to secure. There was widespread scepticism of his government’s ability to manage an “oil-less” economy, as well as fears that such a situation would lead inexorably to communist rule. A collapse narrative emerged to guide U.S. thinking, one that coalesced in early 1953 and convinced policymakers to adopt regime change as the only remaining option. Oil and communism both impacted the coup decision, but so did powerful notions of Iranian incapacity and a belief that only an intervention by the United States would save the country from a looming, though vaguely defined, calamity.
