In 1898, USS Maine was sunk in its arrival to Havanna as part of an oficial visit. President Mckingley had been intervening before in the Spanish-Cuban conflicts with the aim of preventing the start of a war. He had talked to the Spanish leaders with conciliatory words, trying to convince them of solving peacefully their conflict with Cuban insurrectionists.

Then, after the two explosions that caused the sunk of Maine, he abandonned his hopes for neutrality and spoke firmly and fiercely when blaming the Spanish for the incident and when adopting the resolution of declaring war to the Spanish.

In 1896, the Republican national convention nominated McKinley for president since he was considered an important national leader. After becoming the president, McKinley was distressed by the Cuban insurrection and on February 15, 1898, the USS Maine was sunk on an official visit to Havana. Even though President McKinley used a friendly discourse with the purpose of preventing war, his attempts with respectful dialogue were not enough. He tried to persuade the Spanish government to assume a pacific stand with the Cuban insurrectionists with no success.

According to holton (source 1), what was the main motivation of the founding fathers to create the constitution in 1787?
Elza [17]

I would say there were more than two things that motivated the Founding Fathers to write the Constitution. The motivations of these people were many. But in terms of broad motives, I think we can pin down two:

To create a workable government. In the eyes of many Founding Fathers, the Articles of Confederation did not give enough power to the central government. The Articles government did not work. They drafted a new document to fix its problems. They did things like allowing Congress to tax, creating an executive and judicial branch to enforce Congress’ laws, and establishing for sure that the Federal Government had supremacy over the states.

To create a limited government. Nevertheless, the Founding Fathers (nearly all of whom would be considered libertarians today) did not want the Federal Government to have broad authority over our lives. Their federalist beliefs convinced them that broad authority should rest in the hands of the states, or better yet, the individual. They accomplished this by giving all legislative power to Congress and then by assigning specific powers to Congress. The enumerated powers are intended to limit Congress’ actions and prevent it from assuming it has power in any area.
