Answer:

I think that the founding fathers chose this set of liberties because citizens demanded a guarantee of their basic freedoms. The five freedoms it protects: speech, religion, press, assembly, and the right to petition the government. Together, these five guaranteed freedoms make the people of the United States of America the freest in the world. There’s no “legal age” you have to reach to exercise your First Amendment freedoms. They are guaranteed to you the day you’re born. There’s also no citizenship requirement for First Amendment protection. If you’re in the U.S., you have freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly and petition. Without the First Amendment, religious minorities could be persecuted, the government might well establish a national religion, protesters could be silenced, the press could not criticize government, and citizens could not mobilize for social change.

Explanation:

Sectionalism - putting the interests of your region before the interests of the nation - dominated the 1850s. The nation was divided over the issue of slavery. Slavery was under attack as antislavery forces tried to keep it from expanding into the territories acquired by the United States in the 1840s.
