William Price Jr. was the author and
his main argument was to provide with us that of the dilemma of
democracy and a republic. It is also known as federalist vs.
antifederalist. People from the federalist side including Alexander
Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay.They believe that power is strong
and they want all that power to go to the government. The Antifederalist
including Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams, George Mason and Nathaniel Macon they were against the power of government and wanted to limit that.
The
Author purpose was to show us the life how Nathaniel Macon became an
Anti federalist.The point of view was 3rd person because of it it always
says his full name. We heard from Nathaniel Macon, George washington,
Ben Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, James madison, Samuel adams, Patrick
Henry, and many more. There was no one unaccounted for.
The class had a full understanding
during our meeting time. We talk about a lot of things pretraining to
the reading of Nathaniel Macon. We discussed about what the were the
main points and the objectives of the readings. And why his views
mattered.
We discussed questions like
why Nathaniel prefers a militia instead of an army, the reason why is
because he likes a standing army just in case. There was no more
questions that I can think of.
