John Adams

In his book The Wealth of Nations, Smith stated that industry and commerce, not just farming, were the most important sources of wealth. He also advocated free enterprise.

There is little to indicate that Samuel Adams hated his cousin. They fought for the same side. Samuel was given to action while John emphasized words and laws. Samuel seems to have had some role in the Boston Tea Party, though that is not clear. Samuel favored attacks on the British authorities long before John endorsed these actions. There was certainly some tension because of their differing methods.

John Henry Howell died in 1944.

John Adams wrote the Stamp Act in 1769 and it was approved in 1770.

Paul Revere joined the Sons of Liberty for economic reasons. He was a silver/goldsmith and his business was suffering due to the Stamp Act that put a tax on everyday products such as newspaper, bills, pamphlets, etc. Because of the money spent on these taxes, ordinary people did not have enough money to spend on luxury items like family crests, silverware sets, bowls and ladles, etc. He wanted to become more politically involved and used his skills as an engraver to do propaganda engravings such as his famous Boston Massacre cut.

The Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions were passed. They were written by James Madison and Thomas Jefferson. The two documents stated that States have the right to declare any Federal law they saw as being illegal to be null and void and unenforceable. This was in upholding the idea of State Rights.

John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence: July 4, 1826. The two were friends and correspondents towards the ends of their lives, after being partners in the revolution and then political opponents.

The Alien and Sedition Acts were a series of four laws enacted by the U.S. Congress in 1798.

The four acts are as follows -

1. The Naturalization Act

This law extended the amount of time that immigrants had to spend in the country before becoming full citizens to 14 years. However, the act was repealed in 1802.

2. The Alien Friends Act

This gave the president the power to deport any resident alien that was considered dangerous to the safety of the country. It stayed in practice for two years.

3. The Alien Enemies Act

This act made it possible for the president to deport any immigrant if the immigrant's home country is at war with the United States. The act is still in effect today.

4. The Sedition Act

The Sedition Act made the publishing of any material deemed to be spreading false or ill-intended material against the government illegal. The act stayed intact until 1801.

First of all, the Alien and Sedition Acts are separate. But anyway, the president in office at the time was John Adams.

He wasn't against the patriots, he was a patriot. He argued that Great Britian was unfairly taxing the colonies without their consent. Examples are the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and Tonwshend Act.

The main target of the Sedition act was to stop the inflammatory presses ran by the Democratic-Republicans in opposition to the John Adams administration. The Act made it illegal to make false and malicious statements or allegations against any government official.

They bitterly opposed it because they felt it violated their first amendment rights.

The Alien and Sedition Acts were a series of acts signed into law in 1798 that was designed to give the federal government more authority to deal with foreign nationals. These acts gave the president power to deport any "aliens" during peacetime, deport any "alien" with ties to the enemies of the U.S., and freedom to consider any articles deemed "libelous" as treason.

John Adams was born in 1767 and died in 1848. Do the math. 1848-1767= 81 years old.

Yes it would be correct if John Adams was actually BORN in 1767 and died in 1848.

He was not in fact born in 1767 nor did he die in1848. He was actually born in 1735 and died in 126 so that would make him 91 years old.

Proposed by John Adams.

Alien Act- authorized the deportation of foreigners

Sedation Act- prohibited the publication of insults or malicious attacks on the president or members of the Congress.

John Adams was appointed one of five members of the "Committee of Five" which was directed to write the Declaration of Independence. The other four were Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Robert L. Livingston and Roger Sherman. Once Jefferson finished his initial version, Adams and Franklin reviewed it and made minor changes. Then it was presented to the Continental Congress for adoption. Adams participated in the debates in Congress where several other changes were made to arrive at a final version.

John Adams, the second president of the United States, was urged by Americans to go to war with France. Adams was well aware that declaring war on France would harm the United States gravely, for during the late 1700s our military was not sufficient to battle with another country. Adams received word from his representatives sent to France that the foreign country would agree to stop interfering with US shipping - for a price. France claimed that the United States representatives would need to formally meet with French agents code named X, Y, and Z and give them a bribe of 200,000 dollars. This affair is called the XYZ affair due to the names of the agents used by France when they tried to bribe the United States.

The XYZ Affair was an incident in 1798, during a period when French privateers were regularly seizing U.S. merchant ships, and that precipitated an undeclared war between the US and France .
President John Adams sent emissaries to France to negotiate . They were met by three French agents who identified themselves as X,Y and Z and demanded a substantial bribe for access to the French foreign minister. The Americans were outraged.
