Starting a new Nation

In order to form a powerful and just nation, you first need to make sure everyone is given equal rights. The Bill of Rights made sure that everyone understood the rights they have. Rights such as the freedom of speech and the freedom to bear arms gave people a feel of independence. However, problems can occur while trying to form a nation. Some political figures such as Hamilton, a federalist, believed more in the government. He wanted the government to be powerful in order to rule the people. Also he was not in favor of the common. He proposed a National Bank that the wealthy would run. Jefferson on the other hand, was a Democratic-Republican. He believed that the government should not have to much power and ensured that the common voice was heard. The Louisiana Purchase was also a good to build a strong nation. This gave America a chance to expand and create more opportunities for people to either get money, or have a place to live.

I believed that the best way to have a strong united country is to set good and just laws. Laws that are not to linient yet not too harsh. Ammendments like the Bill of Rights was a great start. By giving people freedom, it gives them a sense of independence, which was exactly what they fought Britain for. Voting for good, strong plotical leaders is also important. You want to vote for someone that has the interest of everyone in mind. Hamilton was only looking out for the wealthy and not for the common people. The best way for the government to unify the nation with diverent backgrounds is to make sure that no group is left out. Meaning that the laws have to be equal through out.
