Quick Write

The U.S. ConstitutionArticle I Section 8

• Enumerated Powers: Those powers given to U.S. government expressly listed in the Constitution.

• General Powers: Those powers given to the U.S. government to serve the general welfare of the people. These powers are not specific.– General Welfare Clause: Allows Congress to

enact laws that it sees fit to support the common good.

– Necessary and Proper Clause: Allows Congress to enact laws that are necessary to carry out its enumerated powers.

Problems in 1791• Revolutionary War Debt – Many states owed

money after the Revolutionary War• Common Currency – Before and during the

Revolutionary War each state had its own system of currency. There was no uniformity in America.

Problems Continued

• As a new country America needed to develop its economy. Should America focus on agriculture, which it had in the past, or should it develop its trade and manufacturing?

Federalists Democratic-Republican • Alexander Hamilton• Strong federal government• Rule by wealthy class.• Since the states are now one

country there should be one currency, and it should be paper.

• Necessary and proper means whatever the government needs to do to solve problems.

• Some powers are not prohibited in the government, but are implied powers.

• National Bank

• Thomas Jefferson• Small, local government• Rule by the people• Not all the states have the same

amount of debt and it is unfair to have states will little debt pay other state’s debt.

• People don’t trust that paper can be valuable and used instead of gold and silver.

• Necessary and proper means whatever is absolutely necessary.

• State Bank

The first 2 parties Develop

Some people thought that a bank would help in solving the problems

in 1791. Based on your knowledge of the Constitution,

does Congress have the right to create this bank? Why or why not?

Jefferson• Jefferson did not see the need for the bank.• He also worried that if Congress created a

bank, then they were abusing power and would do so in the future.

Hamilton• Having a bank would aid

the government in paying off the debt, coining money, and collecting taxes.

• The ability to charter a bank is an implied power. The Constitution does not prohibit its creation and it would help Congress carry out its duties.

• The bank will also allow people to borrow money to start businesses which helps the economy.

Washington’s Decision• Ultimately Washington agreed with Hamilton

and the first national bank was chartered for 20 years.

• Many spirited entrepreneurs took advantage of the loans from the bank and America’s economy grew.

Political PartiesEarly Republic• Democratic-Republicans

– Limited national government– Strict construction of the Constitution– Opposed National Bank and tariffs– Agricultural economy

• Federalists– Strong national government– Loose construction of the Constitution– Favored National Bank and tariffs– Manufacturing and shipping-based economy

WE WILL Discuss and identify the origin of Judicial Review and look at examples of Congressional and Presidential responsesI WILLBe the Judge and apply my knowledge and use critical thinking to answer questions over various court case scenarios.

A New states did not have the same status as the original 13 states.B All settlers living in the area were given 640 acres of land.C Slavery was forbidden in the territory north of the Ohio River.D New states were not represented in Congress.

Judicial Review• Judicial review originated from the ruling

on Marbury v. Madison. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall declared that the Supreme Court’s (Judicial Branch) duty is to interpret the law (according to the U.S. Constitution).

• If the Supreme Court decides a law violates the U.S. Constitution, it cannot go into effect or if it is already in effect, it is no longer legal. This allowed a balance between the three branches of government and allows the Supreme Court to determine the constitutionality of laws made by Congress.

•  (1803) – set the precedent of judicial review and gave the Supreme Court the power to declare laws unconstitutional

Case Issue Decision Significance

Marbury v. Madison

Jefferson ordered Madison not to deliver Adams’ last minutes judicial appointments

Law that allows Marbury to sue Madison for delivery of his appointment was unconstitutional

Establishes judicial review- the power of the federal court to determine the constitutionality of a law

McCulloch v. Maryland

Maryland wanted to tax its branch of national bank

States cannot claim to have a power over the federal government

Federal government is upheld as the supreme law of the land

Gibbons v. Ogden

Steamship operators fought over shipping on Hudson River in both New York and New Jersey

Only the federal government has power to regulate interstate commerce

Federal government’s power reinforced

You be the Judge!!

WE WILLAnalyze the War of 1812 as a cause of economic changes in the nation. I WILLCreate a graphic organizer identifying the cause and effects of the War of 1812.

Which of the following is the correct ordering for the first five presidents of the United States?A Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Monroe, AdamsB Washington, Adams, Madison, Jefferson, MonroeC Washington, Madison, Adams, Monroe, JeffersonD Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe

Quick Write

Push Toward War

1. War Hawks were members of Congress from the South and West who wanted war with Britain in 1812. War Hawks had a strong sense of nationalism.

2. Nationalism is pride in one’s country

3. Three reasons for war were:(1) Britain was treating the US

as if it were still a British Colony

(2)Wanted revenge on Britain for seizing American ships

(3)Wanted to conquer territory and expand influence into Canada (British) and Florida (Spain)

War of 1812• Significance – this war between America and Britain

established the United States as a country with an identity when the new country defended its first "invasion," proving it was a powerful force.

• No territory was gained or lost and there was no clear winner.Causes/Issues

– British impressment of U.S. sailors (capturing US ships and forcing the American sailors to join them)

– Shipping interference – British supported American Indian resistance against

Americans in the Northwest Territory– War Hawks – persuaded Congress to support a declaration

of war against Britain

Events• Attack on Washington, D.C. – in 1814, the British occupied DC and set

fire to many public buildings. Dolley Madison saved the Gilbert Stuart portrait of George Washington from the White House.

• Fort McHenry – Francis Scott Key wrote the poem “Defense of Fort McHenry," from which the “Star Spangled Banner” was written, after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry by the British Royal Navy ships during the Battle of Fort McHenry.

• Battle of New Orleans – Treaty of Ghent was “in process” when the battle began. General Andrew Jackson defeated the British, who were intent on seizing New Orleans and the land America had acquired with the Louisiana Purchase. The victory made Jackson a national hero.

• Treaty of Ghent – peace treaty that ended the War of 1812 and restored relations between the U.S. and Britain to pre-war status.

War of 1812

War of 1812Effects• The United States gained a measure of international

respect for managing to withstand the British attack.• Improved the professionalism of the U.S. Army• The manufacturing capabilities of the United States

expanded. The British blockade of the American coast created a shortage of cotton cloth (previously American cotton was shipped to Britain where it was turned into cloth, then sent back to America) in the United States, leading to the creation of a cotton-manufacturing industry. Numerous manufacturing establishments were founded (particularly in the Northern region) that left the United States industrially independent of Europe.

War of 1812Economic Changes• As a result of the interruption of trade during the War

of 1812, Americans had to rely on U.S. manufactured goods in place of those they had previously imported. U.S. manufacturing grew. This was especially evident in the production of cotton cloth.

• Improvements were made to transportation routes including the building of roads and canals. Erie Canal was completed in 1825. These provided for movement of goods.

• Tariffs were placed on imported goods, which helped to promote U.S. manufacturing.
