What were John Adams' domestic issues?
John Adams, the second president of the United States, was initially popular in the undeclared war against France. The "X-Y-Z Affair," in which the French foreign minister demanded a bribe before he received America's ambassador, infuriated the American populace, and Adams instructed Congress to vote funds for more Navy ships. However American privateers caused huge losses to the French merchant fleet, and soon France received the American ambassador and signed a peace treaty. Signing the treaty infuriated Sect of Treasury Alexander Hamilton's followers, and their opposition caused Adams to lose his re-election bid to Thomas Jefferson.

In 1797, there was a diplomatic incident between America and France. France was in a difficult position and asked America for help. George Washington wanted neutrality but also did not want a sour relationship with France. So John Adams had sent three American diplomats to France in hopes of reaching a friendly accord. Talleyrand was a French diplomat who had refused to see the three Americans and chose Officer X, Officer Y, and Officer Z to talk to the Americans instead. He suggested that if the Americans want to work things out they should pay a bribe. The XYZ affair led to the "quasi-war." Although the Americans were close to have come officially close to war with the French, Adams had never declared war.
When did John Adams the 2nd president die?
July 4th 1826. he was 90 when HE died.
Death:Less than a month before his death, John Adams issued a statement about the destiny of the United States, which historians such as Joy Hakim have characterized as a "warning" for his fellow citizens. Adams said:
My best wishes, in the joys, and festivities, and the solemn services of that day on which will be completed the fiftieth year from its birth, of the independence of the United States: a memorable epoch in the annals of the human race, destined in future history to form the brightest or the blackest page, according to the use or the abuse of those political institutions by which they shall, in time to come, be shaped by the human mind.[60]
On July 4, 1826, the 50th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, Adams died at his home in Quincy. His last words are often quoted as "Jefferson still lives." Only the word "Jefferson" was clearly intelligible, however.[61] Adams was unaware that Jefferson, his compatriot in their quest for independence, then great political rival, then later friend and correspondent, had died a few hours earlier on the very same day.
His crypt lies at United First Parish Church (also known as the Church of the Presidents) in Quincy. Until his record was broken by Ronald Reagan in 2001, he was the nation's longest-living President (90 years, 247 days) maintaining that record for 175 years. The record is currently held by former President Gerald Ford, who served less than one term, and who died December 26, 2006 at 93 years, 165 days.
John Adams remains the longest-lived person ever elected to both of the highest offices in the United States.
