Why was John Adams was not re-elected as president in the election of 1800?

History
1 answer:
miss Akunina [59]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

John Adams lost the election for maybe four main reasons. The heart of the matter was the expansion of Federal power at the expense of state and individual rights. Adams expanded the Federal Government by building up the standing army and building more ships for the Navy. He raised taxes and ran deficits. Adams instituted the Alien and Sedition Acts which criminalized criticism of the government and was rough on immigrants. Lastly, Adams toom Great Britain's side against the French. These policies weren't popular but Jefferson must have been greatful for the Navy ships he got to use in the war against the Barbary Pirates. Jefferson waged an effective campaign in the newspapers and he had the winning issues. The election still ended up in the House of Representatives between Jefferson and his running mate Aaron Burr. It was Alexander Hamilton who backed Jefferson over Burr. I am sure a contributing factor in their duel. Burr ran as a Vice-presidential running mate with Jefferson. He should not have tried to double cross Jefferson. Burr definitely had many character flaws.

What was the bull moose party and why was it significant?
elena55 [62]
The Bull Moose Party is a third political party formed in the US during the early 1900's. This party is also known as the Progressive party.

This party is important because it results in several long term changes to American society including:
1) The creation of the 8 hour work day.
2) The creation of the 40 hour work week.
3) Child labor laws (preventing children under 16 from working).
4) Helping women to gain the right to vote (with the 19th amendment).
