.... the bank when Henry Clay proposed it in 1832. Even though it was passed through Congress, Jackson vetoed it claiming that it was unconstitutional but it was declared constitutional by the Marshall in 1819 during the McCulloch vs. Maryland case. This was one of many vetoes made by Jackson under the executive branch. Even though the charter was vetoed it was still valid for four more years and since Jackson abhorred the national bank, he schemed to destroy it by pulling out funds and creating many state-chartered banks which came to be called, “wild cat” or pet banks.” This .....

.... United States conjured up the Bill of Rights which illustrated which rights were endowed to the people of the United States. They adopted the Bill of rights, which was drafted for political motivations, and it evolved into a document which shelters American people's civil liberties. When the Bill of Rights was adopted, political motivations superceded libertarian views. James Madison claimed that this "nauseous project of amendments" would "kill the opposition[for the ratification of the constitution] everywhere..." In the beginning, the Bill of Rights was first draft .....

.... Americans to withdraw. Shaken by this American victory, the British commander ordered his troops to lodge in the surroundings of the farm area and wait for support from Clinton, in the south. They waited for almost three weeks, but he didn’t come. By now Burgoyne’s situation was tough. He was now facing a growing American army without help from the south, and their supplies were rapidly diminishing. They grew weaker every day. Burgoyne had to choose between advancing or retreating. He decided to risk a second battle. A force of 1,500 men moved out of the British camp. .....

.... more clearly by visualizing as much as possible. In Entombment for example, Cigoli displayed Joseph and Nicodemus holding a crown of thorns and nails in order to help us understand that this scene takes place directly after they took Christ down from the cross. In the Adoration of the Shepherds, Cigoli probably painted the star above so people would assume it is the star of Bethelham which the shepherds followed to see Christ which is what the scene is about. This style is very appropriate for the time because organizations like the Council of Trent wanted people to under .....

.... a brush and every motion I make are to make what I've created more detailed, graceful, and real. I'm only now beginning to realize how much more there is to art than what I had previously understood. When I look at a piece of my work, I see the detail and realism of it, yet somehow I feel that these aspects are all that it possesses. I wonder whether or not I've almost turned my sense of art into a science that lacks the essential characteristics of art, which are expression and emotion. Somehow now I have begun to see that the strictness and precision of my art tr .....

Isolationists opposed the U.S.aid to warring nations. Roosevelt was then accused of steering the U.S. into a war they were not prepared to fight. Roosevelts strategy to defeat the Axis was to equip the nation, fight the Axis wit .....

.... tell that this work of art is Egyptian. Her arms are crossed, and her eyes enlarged in accordance with all Egyptian coffins. One might overlook that the whole coffin is engulfed in hiractic writing, soundly designating it as "Egyptian". Some lines of hiratic writing read, "Beginning of the instructions"(Coffin), which is the traditional opening formula for "didactic writings"(Coffin), reflecting its relationship in appearing Egyptian. The purpose of the coffin is no secret. The Egyptians believed in the "Ka". The objective of the coffin was to provide a bod .....
