CHAPTER 6 SECTION 2 PART 2 ADAMS PROVOKES CRITICISM

Election of 1796 : A Contest Between Opposing Parties Federalist Party: nominated Vice President John Adams to run for President Dem. Republican Party: nominated Thomas Jefferson for President Adams received 71 electoral votes (all from northern states) Jefferson received 68 electoral votes (all from southern states)

Adams Tries to Avoid War: NEUTRALITY France regarded Jay Treaty as a violation of US/French alliance. France began seizing US ships in retaliation. President Adams sent US officials to France to negotiate a solution. 3 French officials, X, Y, & Z demanded a bribe of $250,000 to meet with French Foreign Minister Talleyrand PRESIDENT ADAMS & THE FEDERALIST PARTY WERE DEEPLY INSULTED

Adams Tries to Avoid War: NEUTRALITY (continued) In response to the X, Y, Z Affair, congress created the Department of Navy and authorized US ships to seize French vessels - US & FRANCE WERE NOW ENGAGED IN AN UNDECLARED NAVAL WAR. - FEDERALIST PARTY : WANTED WAR WITH FRANCE - PRESIDENT ADAMS CONTINUED TO PUSH FOR NEUTRALITY

The Alien & Sedition Acts Tensions between Federalist & Dem.-Republicans were high! America’s large French immigrant population concerned Federalists members of the Democratic-Republican party (publicly bashed President Adams and the Federalist Party To ensure the security and safety of the United States, the Executive & Legislative branches RATIFIED the Alien & Sedition Acts.

The Alien & Sedition Acts ALIEN & SEDITION ACTS increased the number of years a person would need to live in the United States from 5 to 14 years before they can apply for citizenship. President could now deport/imprison any alien considered ‘undesirable’. President could now imprison/fine citizens who express opinions considered damaging to the US.

Virginia & Kentucky Resolution - The Alien & Sedition Acts trampled on the first amendment rights of American citizens. - Democratic-Republicans, led by James Madison & Thomas Jefferson were outraged over the ratification of the Alien & Sedition Acts and publicly denounced the Acts as UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

Virginia & Kentucky Resolution - Democratic-Republicans encouraged Virginia & Kentucky to write resolutions asserting the principle of NULLIFICATION. (outlaw a law) - The Virginia & Kentucky Resolution asserted that if a federal law or act was deemed UNCONSTITUTIONAL by a state then the state could refuse to enforce the law/act within its borders. - The resolutions proved that the balance of power between the federal government and state governments would remain a controversial issue! - The Alien & Sedition Act and the Virginia & Kentucky Resolutions would be the most contested issue in the 1800 Presidential Election.

The Death of Washington On December 14 th, 1799 General Washington died then would be laid to rest in Mount Vernon soon after. - Washington death would prove to be instrumental in improving relations with France. Napoleon Bonaparte, ordered ten days of mourning to be observed in the French armies for the American leader. - Washington’s courage & leadership are regarded as almost super human however his renunciation of power after the Revolutionary War would prove to be one of the most revered acts in human history.
