Answer: Lincoln had spoken against the Mexican-american war

Explanation: Taylor was considered as a hero in this war; meanwhile Lincoln's own military service consisted of three months without incident being a young man in the Black Hawk war, an experience he once jokingly described as "He had many bloody struggles with mosquitoes". In fact, congressman Lincoln had opposed the start of the war with Mexico, seeing it as an unjustified ground by president Polk with the sole objective of claiming more territory for the expansion of slavery.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The correct answer is "The Carta Magna" and "The Petition of Rights".

The Carta Magna was a document issued on Juen 15th, 1215. It marked the first precedent for the limitations of the exercise of the British Crown's powers over the citizens which in this case were the Barons.

The Petition of Right is a constitutional document issued in 1628 which further limited the Royal Crown's powers by restricting non-parliamentary taxations, imprisonment without cause, and the use of martial law.

These documents served as a reference for the Constitutional Convention to elaborate the draft of the Us Constitution, as they proposed limitations to the Federal Government which was to be formed.
