Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Washington´s Prophecy All Americans are aware that, in most cases, the public measures proposed by the leading men of one party, are sure to be violently and bitterly opposed by the politicians of the opposite party. Thus, the war of 1812 was bitterly opposed by the Federalists of that period, because Mr. Madison and his party favored it. Many other incidents might be cited to show the perverse disposition generally exhibited by each party in relation to the measures originated or advocated by their opponents. At different periods the politicians of certain sections have become so violently embittered against the stronger and more powerful party of their opponents, that they have even plotted and conspired for the dissolution of the Union, thus showing that they were disposed to destroy the Government, rather than to remain in the Union and enjoy the benefits of a Government which they could not wield mid control to suit the purposes of their party. "If we cannot rule, we will ruin," has been the motto of politicians in more than one of the great parties. The Federalists, during the Administrations of Jefferson and Madison, from 1801 to 1815, were perhaps as violent and bitter as any party that ever existed in our country. They opposed every public measure of the Administration without regard to truth, justice, consistency, or the interests of the nation.
