Lepore inducted the use of explosion on the USS Princeton to signify additional tragedy. After vetoing a national bank, Tyler was kicked out of the Whig Party. The annexation of Texas as a slave state and the admittance of Oregon as a free state became his main concerns. He believed that in order for the United States to be stable, it needed to extend its territory. Because annexation would spread slavery, the Senate refused to ratify it. Tyler withdrew out of the following race after the Democrats picked James K. Polk, a Southerner who backed annexation. Polk's victory over Henry Clay appeared to be a popular vote in favor of annexation. Various overreaching arguments were made, and Lepore reflected upon them. For example, was the cause of the impacts of the Mexican–American War? What was the altitude during the conflict that influenced federal policy? How did regional disparities relating to slavery produce a lot of friction and eventually lead to civil war? The thematic of the research study is to identify how Jill Lepore developed, various overreaching arguments. Comment by Teng Li: Lepore inducts… present tense when desiring what an author does since the ideas always stay in print. Next: induct: awkward. Find another word. Comment by Teng Li: This part should go first.

Various proves were used to support the overreaching arguments. When it comes to domestic politics, Lepore explains that Congress was in complete disarray. The division was made based on geography rather than political affiliation. The Wilmot Proviso, which prohibits slavery in any new land acquired from Mexico along North-South boundaries, was passed by the House. Many Americans opposed the war, seeing it as an act of imperialism and the spread of slavery as an injustice. Frederick Douglass, a freed slave, became a leading role in the anti-slavery struggle. He became an advocate for racial equality after becoming well-known for his oratory skills (Lepore pg 191). The telegraph and railroad provided hope to Douglass and others that rapid communication could bring about positive social change. Furthermore, the US won the war with Mexico and gained control of large swaths of its territory. Mexicans living in the United States were offered the opportunity to become citizens, ostensibly with equal treatment, albeit this promise would be disregarded. The United States had evolved into a global power. Some feared that it would fall like Rome. Comment by Teng Li: So what? How does this answer any of the above questions?

As a result of various upheavals in Europe, including the French Revolution and the Russian Revolution, Lepore introduces the burgeoning campaign for women's rights led by thinker Margaret Fuller, which climax in 1848 (Lepore pg 196). When both the Whigs and the Democrats nominated pro-slavery candidates for the US presidential election, the parties reorganized. A movement was started, partly inspired by European revolutions, with the slogan "Free Soil, Free Speech, Free Labor, and Free Men!" While slavery robbed people of their full potential, free employment allowed them to develop virtue by their own initiative. It asserted that white and black people were born unequal and called the North's industrialized work "slavery." The South also maintained slavery as the basis of America's wealth. Both free Blacks and feminist women supported the Free-Soil movement. Women's rights activists in Seneca Falls, New York, convened in 1848 and decided to push for legislative changes and the right of women to vote. Comment by Teng Li: Which one? In the nineteenth century?

There are various phenomenal which expletory indicates how Lepore build her argument by the strength of her interpretation of selected species. For instance, between 1840 and 1850 when the, US had the issues relating to the constitutional crisis which recast, the parties and resonated to the national wide divide. The issues of the constitutionality of the slavery were the burning issues (Lepore pg 189). It was however difficult to determine how the crises will be resolved as there existed little agreement on the possibility of who will resolve the matter and decide whether, the federal law was unconstitutional. However, in the opinion of her argument she was literally aware, that, it’s the people constitution and the government was made by the people and the effective answered regarding the crises of the constitution will be provided by the people hence the effective solution could be ascertained. Comment by Teng Li: Specify what argument and what selected species and then move this sentence to either the introduction or the conclusion. Comment by Teng Li: Lepore? She, as a historian, explains the past. That’s all. She does not address the “ought to” question

There was need for the change, thus multiple people were craving for the arm of changes in the society which will bring the resolution and better livelihood. The slavery constitutional crises in the real reflection of the human right were not here nor there. Therefore, there was the dare need for the changes which could have been agitated by the people. Though there was a lot of uncertainty on the question whether, the federal government will be ascertained of the ruling more positive result were anticipate especially from the people who required changes. The ideal resulted to the winning against, the critics who called the cats of slavery abolishment as, imperialism, inconsistent. Comment by Teng Li: grammar Comment by Teng Li: ?

The essay opens with strong questions. The body paragraphs sorta fall part in the sense that each paragraph “summarizes” a portion of the chapter. And they do not talk with each other. Ideally, the essay should have its own “overarching” argument, just one, that encompasses all body paragraphs. Find the inherent logic connection among different paragraphs, make the connections explicit, and reflect the connections in the introduction and conclusion. The current conclusion is abstract and loof – in academic writings, specifics and clarify always trump abstraction.
