LAD #6: Washington’s Farewell Address
It is time for a new election and the people must choose someone to represent them and give them their trust to express the public’s voice. Therefore I have come up with a resolution to decline me of the number of those who make these choices.
I beg you with this resolution to stay true as a citizen to your nation, and be supported by the conviction that the next step we make it compatible to our past as well as our future.
I see a rising sectionalism that must be done away with. With such great political factionalism in the country I urge all of you to unite for the good of the whole nation. Two political parties have developed from factions, such as the Federalists, and the Jeffersonian Republicans. As a federalist myself, I have strongly supported Hamilton’s plan for a central bank and other central economic based approaches while the Jeffersonian Republicans who are ant federalists have opposed the inherent and strong government that Hamilton’s plan stands for; And sides with the farmers over the city citizens. I could have foreseen that this intense political conflict who polarize the system of government and would be the largest issue in setting up a new form of one. We must continue to guide our country to a new set of rules that can represent both those for and those against Federal law.
We must avoid entanglements with our foreign super powers, especially those of Europe. We must fight to stay out of the wars between France and Britain, and both parties can account for the determination of ours to stay neutral. While the British might share strong ties to the Federalists, the Republicans insist upon the treaty of the United States, that they had already signed with the French in 1778. Therefore I must everyone that political leaning may drag the United States into this entanglement and fray.
We must preserve “political prosperity” through the whole morality of our nation, as well as our religion. This morality is “a necessary spring of popular government.” In the security of our own inalienable personal rights, which are the rights of us and are the “instruments of investigation in Courts of justice.” We must try hard not to indulge in the supposition. We must use whatever influence we have to refine education on the minds of structure and experience whether or not national morality can prevail in religious principle.
