John Adams

President John Adams was the President. He was previously the Vice President of the United States.

Besides the fact that they were both elected by the people to be President of the United States they have little in common, I think. There were both married, both were Episcopalians, both were college educated and both were raised in families that were comfortable financially. They lived in very different times and faced very different political situations but they probably both agreed on a conservative interpretation of the US Constitution. ( It would much easier to point out their differences, but that is not the question.)

John Quincey Adams had many foreign encounters with other countries.

It is not known what disease killed Susanna "Suky" Adams however common causes of death of children back then was diarrhea and what was called Consumption then. Now Consumption is known as Tuberculosis.

John Adams did not have a middle name, his full name was John Adams Jr.

I have read two separate things one says John Quincy Adams was the first President with a middle name, another says John Quincy was his full first name and he didn't have a middle name, I don't know which is accurate.

The major accomplishment of his presidency was his peaceful resolution of the Quasi-War crisis with France (1798-1800) but also the expansion of the US army and navy. Adams signed the four controversial Alien and Sedition Acts which included restrictions on the freedom of speech and the press.

He was unable to maintain his popularity, and became the first one-term President of the US (1797-1801) when defeated by Thomas Jefferson in 1800.

John Adams and Thomas Pinckney were both technically presidential candidates and both belong to the Federalist party. Pinckney was the intended running-mate to Adams.

Jackson served 2 terms while adams had 1. jackson was democratic and adams was democratic republican. jackson was liked and adams was not.

His life must have been interesting and reasonably comfortable. He witnessed the Battle of Bunker Hill when he was ten and had first hand knowledge of the beginning of the Revolution. He spent seven years in Europe with his family living in several different places then came back to Boston as a young man after the war ended.

IN 1796 when Adams was elected for president, there were no vice-presidential candidates. The man who finished second in the presidential election, became the vice-president. This system was changed by the 12th amendment,

Adams was many things. His profession was law and he often travelled a 200 mile circuit for his practice. He defended the soldiers in court for the Boston Massacre and he handled every kind of case. In 1766 he was elected selectman in Braintree. His law practice grew by leaps and bounds by 1772 he appeared in more than 200 Superior Court cases. One of his clients was John Hancock. In 1774 he was one of five delegates to the First Continental Congress and he wrote about government. One of his letters was Thoughts on Government to his fellow congressman William Hooper. To Adams the structure of government raised the fundamental questions on the realities of human nature, political power, and the good society. He wrote that the happiness of people was the purpose of government and therefore the form of government was best that produced the greatest amount of happiness for the largest number.( we have forgotten this). Adams took part in the writing of the Declaration of Independence and was the representative for Congress to France to gain aid and money to the patriot cause. Later, he will be appointed a minister of the United States to the British court and help with the Treaty of Paris, but he was not home for the writing of the constitution. He got a copy that fall in London. He doesn't return home until 1788 where he went to his farm in Braintree. He writes to Jefferson" The new government has my best wishes and most fervent prayers for its success and prosperity; but whether I shall have anything more to do with it, besides praying for it, depends on the future suffrage of freemen" Yet, he will take the job as Vice President in 1793 and writes " I am but an ordinary man. The times alone have destined me to fame." He became president on March 4, 1797.

Thomas Jefferson did not serve in the military. Before beginning his political career, Jefferson worked as a lawyer. During the Revolutionary War, he served as a member of the Virginia legislature and as the governor of Virginia.

John Adams was born on October 30, 1735 and died on July 4, 1826 (same day that Thomas Jefferson died). John Adams is thought to have died of debility (old age; most likely heart failure caused by arteriosclerosis). He was, after all, almost 91 years of age at his death - an astonishingly old man for that period in history.

John Quincy Adams played no role in the convention. He was only 19 and finishing up his degree at Harvard when the convention began. His father would have been a delegate but was in Europe as minister to England.

Second US President John Adams was sworn in on March 4, 1797. He served a single term of office and was succeeded by Thomas Jefferson on March 4, 1801.

The main cause for the Quasi-War was the signing of the Jay Treaty between the United States and Great Britain in 1794. The French viewed it as a violation of the 1778 Treaty of Alliance with the American colonists.

John Adams was born on October 30, 1735 in Braintree, Massachusetts. He died on July 4, 1826 in Quincy, Massachusetts.

John Quincy Adams went to

• Harvard University (AB, AM)
• Leiden University

did not support a war with France.

No. His status from the war made him virtually untouchable or even unchallengeable as President. He is the only president to be elected by a unanimous vote of the Electoral College. Toward the end of his second term; however, some Republicans who disliked the Federalist concept Washington espoused did begin to criricize and even call for him to step down, calling him King George IV.

At one point, however, he made concessions with the British Empire concerning land and where the British could build forts and such. Other figures, such as Samuel Adams and the like called for another war, but Washington knew that a war would destroy the new founded America, and so in secret signed a treaty with the British. Everyone hated him and demanded he be impeached, but it eventually died down. In retrospect, this was a good decision on Washingtons part.
