Document 2

Source: George Washington, letter to Robert Orme, aide-de-camp to General Edward

Braddock, March 15, 1755.

It is true Sir, that I have… expressed an Inclination to serve the ensuing Campaigne as a

Volunteer; and this inclination is not a little increased since it is likely to be conducted by

a Gentleman of the General’s Experience. But, besides this and the laudable desire I may

have to serve (with my best abilities) my king and country, I must be ingenuous enough

to confess, that I am not a little biased by selfish considerations. To be plain, Sir, I wish

earnestly to attain some knowledge of the Military Profession: and, believing a more

favourable opportunity cannot offer, than to serve under a Gentleman of General

Braddock’s abilities and experience.

Source: Andrew Jackson's veto message (July 10,1832)

I sincerely regret that in the act before me I can perceive none of those modifications of the bank

charter which are necessary, in my opinion, to make it compatible with justice, with sound policy,

or with the Constitution of our country. : . . The present Bank of the United States . . . enjoys an

exclusive privilege of banking, . . . almost a monopoly of the foreign and domestic exchange.

It appears that more than a fourth part of the stock is held by foreigners and the residue is held by a

few hundred of our own citizens, chiefly of the richest class.

Of the twenty-five directors of this bank five are chosen by the Government and twenty by the citizen

stockholders. . . . It is easy to conceive that great evils to our country and its institutions might

flow from such a concentration of power in the hands of a few men irresponsible to the people.

Is there no danger to our liberty and independence in a bank that in its nature has so little to bind it

to our country?

It is to be regretted that the rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their selfish

purposes.

Document 4 Source: President James K. Polk's Message to Congress, December 2, 1845.

Oregon is a part of the North American continent, to which . . . the title of the United States is the

best now in

existence. The British proposition of compromise, which would make the Columbia [River] the line

south of 49"

. . . and would leave on the British side two-thirds of the whole Oregon Territory, including the free

navigation

of the Columbia and all the valuable harbors on the Pacific, can never for a moment be entertained by

the

United States without an abandonment of their just and clear territorial rights, their own self-respect,

and the

national honor.
