Explanation:
I'm going to ask you a question. It is not a very nice one. How would you feel if you found out that your next door neighbor's son was a mass murderer?
I don't know how public opinion divided even though I was in the Unites States when it happened. Some people believed it was the tragic result of war it self.
Some were shocked: they thought of the American Soldier as a noble creature incapable of such brutality, such thoughtless and immoral murder. The truth likely lies between these two points of view. Certainly President Nixon did not think William Calley's actions warranted the death penalty and that is a very telling observation. If ever there was a political animal that could assess public opinion and act on it, that person would be Richard Nixon. I think the die was set long before My Lai.
Hamilton's next objective was to create a Bank of the United States, modeled after the Bank of England. A national bank would collect taxes, hold government funds, and make loans to the government and borrowers. One criticism directed against the bank was "unrepublican"--it would encourage speculation and corruption. The bank was also opposed on constitutional grounds. Adopting a position known as "strict constructionism," Thomas Jefferson and James Madison charged that a national bank was unconstitutional since the Constitution did not specifically give Congress the power to create a bank.
Hamilton responded to the charge that a bank was unconstitutional by formulating the doctrine of "implied powers." He argued that Congress had the power to create a bank because the Constitution granted the federal government authority to do anything "necessary and proper" to carry out its constitutional functions (in this case its fiscal duties).
In 1791, Congress passed a bill creating a national bank for a term of 20 years, leaving the question of the bank's constitutionality up to President Washington. The president reluctantly decided to sign the measure out of a conviction that a bank was necessary for the nation's financial well-being.
The Holy Spirit enables Christian life by dwelling in the individual believers and enables them to live a righteous and faithful life. The Holy Spirit also acts as comforter or Paraclete, one who intercedes, or supports or acts as an advocate, particularly in times of trial.
