<p>I heard the Rhino question is gonna be a free response question this year. They’re also asking about the sexual lives of Thomas Jefferson, John Kennedy, Bill Clinton, and James Buchanan. You know, compare and contrast sorta thing?</p>
<p>For a real question, why is Buchanan being included in that list ironic?</p>
<p>jefferson living a long life vs Hamilton not is not a difference in opinion ! :P</p>
<p>Jefferson liked the French. Hamilton liked the Brits
Jefferson believed agriculture was most important to the economy. Hamilton uh…didnt
Jefferson liked democracy! hamilton admired the constitutional monarchy of Britain.</p>
<p>Did you know that there is evidence pointing to that Thomas Jefferson and James Madison smoked copious amounts of marijuana?</p>
<p>Aaron Burr actually separated and tried to get some Northeast states to secede during the War of 1812 (or maybe the buildup before the war), and then tried to get Louisiana and Alabama (or some Souhwestern states/territories) to rebel as well</p>
<p>Pentasa - I had no idea, are you serious? That’s pretty interesting and, if true, pretty damn funny as well.</p>
<p>That’s funny…lol…though not all that surprising…</p>
<p>You know who I think must have been pretty screwed up? Andrew Jackson…just my opinion…</p>
<p>Hamilton believed in trickle down economics (as did Hoover) and the aristocracy/big industry, whereas Jefferson believed in helping the common man (which Jackson later extended and changed the idea of true democracy) and the farmers</p>
<p>fireflyscout, I believe he tried to get the states to secede after the War, at the Hartford Convention, which ultimately spelled the end for the Federalist party. </p>
<p>What did the Pendleton Act do?</p>
<p>On the thought of Jefferson, what was the name of his distantly related conservative Chief Justice, who as Bailey said, allowed Hamilton to continue living through him, and what were some of his landmark cases?</p>
<p>ah, I was fuzzy on the details, you may very well be right … but I doubt that will be on the test, just thought it was interesting</p>
<p>umm…John Marshall??
Marbury v Madison is the only case I can think of right now…it’s late…</p>
<p>John Marshall, McCulloch vs. Maryland, Darmouth Case, and ummmmmmmmmm Gibbens vs. Ogden</p>
<p>Could someone do me a favor and reiterate the decisions for McCulloch v Maryland and Gibbens v Ogden?</p>
<p>Maryland vs. McCulloch</p>
<p>The Bank of Maryland branch of BUS challenged the constitutionality of the Bank of the United States. This revived the Hamilton-Jefferson arguments. However, Chief Justice John Marshall, a Federalist, declared the Bank constitutional, setting the precedent that federal law overruled state law for finance cases, in this case that of Maryland.</p>
<p>Gibbens v. Ogden
A dispute over steamboat rights led to the Supreme Court. Marshall declared that interstate commerce was under federal control, while intrastate commerce was under state control.</p>
<p>What was the Saturday Night Massacre?</p>
<p>about interstate trade regulation … Gibbons was interstate trade, both became illegal, and Congress was given the sole right to regulate interstate trade (in this case, steamboats)</p>
<p>The Pendleton Act was a trust-buster, I believe … other than that, I’m a bit fuzzy</p>
<p>Ahh…right right…thank you much!</p>
<p>I’ve never heard of this Saturday Night Massacre you speak of…</p>
<p>nor have I</p>
