Last Nights Homework

 Here is last nights Homework:
It will not make sense if you do not look at the link at the bottom.
The assignment was to look at certain quotes and determine if it was a war hawk or a federalist.

 

Document A: war hawk, he says that the Kentucky militia could take Canada, he is proud
Document B: war hawk, calls British military’s impressment of sailors “unlawful” and “unjust”
Document C: war hawk, he says he is drawn to western war hawks, and that he thinks the war will have advantages
Document D: Federalist, he claims that it was our greed that got us into the war
Document E: Federalist, he says that it was greed, not policy that sent us to the war
Document F: War hawk attempting to sound neutral, he seems prepared to go to war, but Presidents have to be somewhat neutral,
Document G: Federalist, the title says they are protesting the war, but also talks about how it would not affect the greater good 
Here is the link to our teacher's document:

  1. I was glad to see in today's debate you remembered John Randolph (Documents D & E) was an anti-war Democratic Republican. The Federalists would have agreed with the sentiments he expressed in these two documents.
