Our government has had its problems but because of our Constitution that was written by our forefathers, it has been able to evolve along with our society. It is a living document that is as relevant today as it was the day it was written and will continue to protect us in the future.

How did the philosophical and political disagreements between Hamilton and Jefferson lead to the creation of the first American political parties?

Shortly subsequent to the revolution, many serious changes took place in the United Sates.

Disputed issues such as interpretation of the constitution, the Louisiana Purchase, as well as who should manage public affairs, solidified the internal conflict of a growing nation. One disputed issue at hand being the way the United States should go about running itself, Hamilton and Jefferson possessed two very different views.

Mr. Gunnar AP English Language and Composition ?How to Detect Propaganda? Adapted from: The Institute for Propaganda Analysis, 1937 If Americans are to have a clear understanding of present-day conditions and what to do about them, they must be able to recognize propaganda, to analyze it, and to appraise it. But what is propaganda?
