Hi. You did not enter the text this question refers to, but when searching for it on the internet I could find another question just like yours, which showed that the question was referring to "Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death!" which was the speech given by Patrick Henry in 1775. So I hope the answer below will help you.

Answer:

Patrick Henry gives the following reasons why the colonists have no hope that England will comply with their requests:

  • The settlers have been making demands on England for ten years and they have never been granted.
  • England is building an army against the American settlers.

Explanation:

"Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death!" was the speech given by Patrick Henry with the aim of encouraging the colonists to revolt against England. This is because Henry no longer believed that the problems between America and England could be resolved through dialogue and peace, because England was not interested in that. In this case, Henry shows that England never granted the colonists' requests, even if they asked for ten years in a row, which shows that it has no intention of fulfilling them. Furthermore, he claims that England is building an army against the American colonists, which means that England has plans to fight and enslave them, which means that the colonists must act to protect themselves.

Why did the "successes" of the Age of Jackson begin to fail after he left office with his successors, Van Buren and Tyler?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Because successors did not have the same egalitarian and democratic goals as Jackson.

Explanation:

Andrew Jackson developed policies that would help the most undervalued population and reduce American elitism, especially in relation to large banks and corporations. Jackson tried to extend voting rights, ending electoral college and allowing the American population to be the only one responsible for choosing their representatives, promoting programs that help farmers, promoting the rotation of public offices, preventing political elitism, preventing monopoly banking, among other very populist and democratic policies that would give more freedom and progress to American society. However, his successors did not follow these same objectives, mainly because of the political and economic pressure that the big corporations and big political names imposed, which caused the successes of the Jackson era to begin to fail.
