Question

Why does Henry think the colonists are strong?

Answer 1

Answer:

An eloquent and passionate defender of colonial rights, Henry's major argument and strength in motivating the colonists is his belief in freedom and autonomy (the ability to decide for oneself what is best.) In his mind, he feels this strength to be the overriding one for the colonists. As with the framers of the Declaration of Independence, Henry stated the British had violated natural, God-given law--specifically, the human right of freedom. Because the British had broken this natural law, it logically followed that God would side with the colonists, not the British.
