Thank you here's Your shmoop du jour brought to you

00:05

by george washington ah well mannered man who never lost

00:09

his temper but maybe keep cherry trees away from him

00:12

You check out the excerpt dying today escalation in the

00:15

states to yield the argument in the excerpt is most

00:18

clearly an example of which of the following late eighteenth

00:21

century trends and here your potential answers are increasing opposition

00:25

and great well looks like g dobbs was worried that

00:29

the individual states had way too much power under the

00:31

articles of confederation This means we can just get rid

00:34

of a right off the bat supporters of federalism We're

00:37

all about a strong central national government not a loose

00:40

confederation of states The washington wasn't arguing against federalism He

00:45

was arguing for it Which kind of makes sense coming

00:48

from a guy who ended up being the first president

00:50

option c isn't right either There's nothing in the letter

00:53

to make us think that washington had given up on

00:56

enlightenment ideas just like other political leaders and thinkers of

00:59

that time Washington was all about the enlightenment because glennis

01:03

enlightenment never a bad thing Two choice di we say

01:06

Absolutely not Washington never would have advocated for the development

01:09

of political parties He actually specifically warned against them in

01:13

his farewell address after his eight years as a president

01:16

Yes nobody pays attention to that speech now huh All

01:19

right well the correct answer is b like we said

01:21

before george washington was worried that america's decentralized government under

01:25

the articles of confederation wasn't strong enough to keep the

01:27

nation together No surprise then that he was one of

01:30

several leaders whose arguments for federalism eventually led to the

01:34

crafting of the modern strong centralized american government even though

01:39

our bipartisan ism would have him rolling over in his

01:41

grave Sorry george maybe you could take out your anger 00:01:44.509 --> [endTime] on that cherry tree for you
