What Jefferson most criticized for during his second term?
givi [52]

Thomas Jefferson, the man who became the third president of the fledgling United States of America, the author of the Declaration of Independence, the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, and the father of the University of Virginia, was born to Peter Jefferson, a citizen of Welsh origins who wielded a large amount of influence in Albemarle County, Virginia, and his wife Jane Randolph on 2 April 1743. Thomas was the third of ten children.


When his father died in 1757, he left "orders" that Thomas complete his education. Thomas, heeding the words of his father, entered the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg in 1760. Jefferson would later credit one of his math professors, a man by the name of Dr. Small, as being one of his biggest inspirations to excel in school. Peter Jefferson had also encouraged his children to pursue musical studies. Thomas was a talented violinist who played often at the weekly parties hosted by the Lieutenant Governor Francis Fauquier. It was through his interaction with Fauquier that Jefferson learned about the social, political, and parliamentary life of Europe which heavily influenced that in America.


After graduating from William and Mary, Jefferson studied law and in April 1764, after his 21st birthday, Jefferson assumed the management of his fathers estate and extensive lands. He was also named vestryman and a justice of the peace, positions he more or less inherited from his father. At this time, Jefferson developed his zeal for farming; an obsession that he would sustain for the rest of his life. Jefferson always believed that the United States should build its economy on agriculture, and not on industry. He simultaneously continued his studies of the law, which lead him to the writings of Lord Coke, a respected Whig party member who espoused the idea of religious freedom. Lord Coke's writings inspired Jefferson to reject Nathan Hale's assertion that Christianity was an inherent part of the laws in England, which inspired him in later years to write the Statute for Religions Freedom.

2) Analysis: What are the advantages of a bicameral (two houses/governing bodies) structure of
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The real advantage is that of having a considerable separation of power within the government.

Explanation:

With two houses or governing bodies in the United States, it provides less chances of corruption, a devolution of power among different institutions, and helps to keep a check on one another.

With just one house, there is too much power concentrated in the hands of a small number of people. This hampers the development of a proper democracy.

A democratization government needs to have a leader with limited power.

1. Imagine you write
Lorico [155]

Answer:

1.) The Boston Massacre was a confrontation on March 5, 1770, in which British soldiers shot and killed several people while being harassed by a mob in Boston. The event was heavily publicized by leading Patriots such as Paul Revere and Samuel Adams.

2.) The phrase comes from the opening stanza of Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Concord Hymn" (1837) and refers to the first shot of the American Revolution at the Old North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts, where the first British soldiers fell in the battles of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775.

3.) If the patriots had lost the Revolutionary war, the Americans would still be under British control and have to deal with the treatment they dealt with before such as paying taxes from over seas and having to house soldiers in their homes. You could also say that if they lost the war, they would probably be horribly punished for their actions in trying to separate from Great Britain. I don't know if treason is the correct word, but they could maybe see it as that.

Hope this helps!
