Jethro Creighton had been real different before he went to Newton. He had been really innocent and really imaginative with a child-like mind. This is probably the result of a normal children life and of his youth. He is usually tasked with child duties and never experiences the responsibilities of a full grown man and how the life works. He does eventually but not just yet. He is much more happier and easier to amuse with even the slightest bit of fun. Jethro Creighton is a child before his trip to Newton. Jethro Creighton had been real different after he went to Newton. He was more serious and stern with the mindset of an adult. He had learned the dangers that were all around him caused by the war, death, drunken idiots, and many others. He took on the responsibilities of a man such as all the jobs but not only that, he took on the jobs of five men as a ten year old. That really affected him and those effects included tiredness, fatigue, irratibility, and many other of the same likes. Jethro Creight is a "man" after his trip to Newton.

media type="custom" key="23026962" The music track is unhealthy. I will get my music track uploaded later today as a separate file. I could also just put the new one up on the Prezi too. Hmm, I'll do one of the two but I can be sure it will be up this evening. Music Track: (Sounds better except these net-book recorders are *low* so it may sound a little bit choppy. My real work sounds much cleaner and softer in tone and smoothness.) media type="file" key="Shiloh's Hill Song.wma" width="300" height="300"

Essay: May 10, 1869, Today is a big day in America. The Pacific railroad is now opening up for through traffic and it is being started off with the driving of “The Last Spike” with a silver hammer at Promontory Summit In Utah. I luckily will be present at thing event and get to witness such an honor. I will also be on the first train as well being very close to the conductor of this ride so you could say I was lucky here too. This road will establish mechanized transcontinental transportation network that will revolutionize settlement and economy of the American West. It will also bring all these Western states much more closely into the Union. What is also great about this is that this railroad will be goods and transportation a lot easier, cheaper, and safer. I like to think of this as the heavenly pathway that leads us Americans across such as vast country of beauty and wonder. I am also friends with Leland Stanford who will actually be driving the spike with the hammer and hopefully I can get his autograph to keep and give to my children so they can give it to theirs one day too. This is truly such an event of extreme opportunity that will make pioneers and settlers more confident into populating the west. What an honor for me to witness such an event like this. Well off I go to the Promontory Summit. I rented a lodge that I have been staying in the past week. It’s actually lovely here with all this wildlife but off I go. I don’t want to miss it.

Many people have different views on this topic but if you really looked at it closely, there would be a view that more people favor over another. This view is probably that Andrew Jackson was in fact Democratic. To an extent, President Jackson’s goals and success had led our country into a country of greater democracy. His aims were democratic even if the methods weren’t so we still know what he was trying to do which in, as a matter of fact, a great idea.From historical, well-sourced statistics of the United States, more states start to vote for presidential elections by the people and not the legislature. This is something Andrew Jackson wanted and it ended up benefiting him as a __#|bonus__. For example, the only state that votes by legislature for presidency is South Carolina in 1836. The rest had chosen to vote by the people, which was what President Jackson wanted. Some people fail to notice that the year of Jackson’s election more states began to use methods of people presidential elections than that of before.To add on, in a Bank Veto Message to Congress written on July 10th, 1832, Andrew Jackson explains how awful and frequent it is, for the rich and powerful to “bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes.” - Jackson. Andrew Jackson himself was a rich man, so this is a bit contradicting. This would only mean that __#|rich men__ understand what they, and maybe not they but others instead, are doing to make their life much more beneficial and greater. Jackson does not only talk conclusions and assumptions in this message to Congress. He also supports his facts and statements with evidence, like when he says that more than a fourth of the stock is held by foreigners while the rest is held by our own citizens, being of the wealthy class.To finish up on our details, Thomas Bailey and David Kennedy of The American Pageant in 1994 wrote some things about Andrew Jackson and his presidential election. Many followers of President Jackson, known as the “Jacksonians”, made statements such as this, “Shall the people rule?” The answer for sure came from every Jackson-supporting mob, “The people shall rule!” Many people were puzzled by such a peaceful uprising. This was a revolution that was happening before America’s eyes going for change and democracy. For example, Daniel Webster, a puzzled citizen, is quoted saying “I never saw anything like it…” For many American farmers, Andrew Jackson was their hero and they would travel 500 miles just to see his inauguration because they loved the way his democratic politics made sense.All in all, President Andrew Jackson was very democratic. His views and goals to steer the country were democratic as well. His mindset was for sure democratic and nothing else. His methods and choice of progression may have been inhumane such as the Indian Removal Act but he hadn't considered them people. He considered them more like animals which gives him the excuse of him still being democratic after that. Jackson has however done many great things for America and founded our democratic party which still lives on today. So to tie loose ends, Andrew Jackson was for democracy, and nothing else.

The signature most likely reads Judge as that could be a last name or __#|a pen__ name. Little is known about the author however the phrase at the bottom says "Keep off!

===The War of 1812 was neither one or lost because neither side surrendered to the other side. In order for a war to be officially on, the enemy's military power and hierarchy has to be terminated, not specifically killed, just terminated. They both had representatives in Belgium creating a peace treaty which would only mean that they both came to a draw like in chess where draw's are possible outcomes. Even if a lot of battle were won by the Americans and that in a way the Americans successfully defend America does not mean they won.===

Dear John Adams, I would like to tell you about my current predicament and worry for this country. __#|Your__ presidency for the United States was definitely worthwhile. Not known by many but you did a lot to our country. These next four years is __#|your__ chance to prove yourself that you are just as good as George Washington. This is your time. This is hour. Ever since you solved the French conflict and prevented war you were already a great president. You did not get that much of a chance to prove yourself however when you did you did the right choice. Even if not very many people noticed that. You are just as good as Washington and perhaps even better. To eliminate loose ends, your points of view and perspective on things are one of the most superior and logical of United States politicians. I really admire how you manage things so delicately and responsibly. That is a value that many people look over. To get to the point, you should run as a candidate for presidency. It would be the best for this country, its government, and our people. Amen. From, Sir Isaac McNewton
