To discuss how to respond to the new taxes??
I'm not sure if any were begun in 1775. The American Revolution was occurring at the time but it started in 1760's the sugar and stamp acts were in 1764 and 1765, While the Townsend act was in 1770. The declaration wasn't even started until 1817.
American people generally believe that the ideals of the founding fathers are the best ideals because of things such as democracy, unalienable rights, the constitution with its amendments, and similar things. Whenever someone would show up who would claim otherwise that person would be accused of being a traitor or a spy or something similar. This was especially important during the red scare when they tried to fight communists in the US more than anything else.
The Native Americans helped the French. The English were stealing the Native American's land and the Native American's felt that wasn't fair so they put their efforts and trust in the French. That is why it was called the French and Indian War because the French and the the Indians were allies and they fought together.
It would be John C Fremont. However he didn't win the whole election, the Democrat he was running against did.
