1. Pop Quiz 7.3
a. To protect American interests, Jefferson pursued a policy of peaceful coercion. This act prevented American ships from leaving their home ports until Britain and France stopped restricting U.S. trade. The embargo overestimated the reliance of Britain and France on American shipping and underestimated the resistance of merchants in America.
b. This treaty signed on Christmas Eve 1814 that ended the War of 1812.
c. A Supreme Court case that asserted the dominance of national over state statutes.
d. The 1823 declaration by President James Monroe that the Western Hemisphere was closed to any further colonization or interference by European powers. In exchange, Monroe pledged that the United States would not become involved in European struggles.
THE WAR OF 1812 AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF POLITICS:
2. Conflict in the Atlantic and the West
*The Embargo of 1807, what happened?
*Who were the Western War Hawks? / Battle of Tippcanoe
*Map 7.4
3. The War of 1812
*Tenskwatawa, "The Prophet," 1830 & Counting Scalps
*Why did Federalists oppose the war?
*J44 / A: The war occurred because the United States could neither economically nor politically tolerate repeated violations of its commercial rights as a neutral nation. Britain raided American ships to replenish its crews, even firing upon a U.S. Navy vessel. President Jefferson created an economic embargo against Britain, straining relations between the two nations. Moreover, Britain's assistance to native tribes against American settlers in the interior West also motivated the United States to declare war against Britain, Many Republican "war hawks" from the West and South also wanted to seize territory in British Canada.
*Peace Overtures and a Final Victory / Treaty of Ghent
*Some historians have characterized the War of 1812 as a Second American Revolution. Do the War of 1812 deserve this label?

4. The Federalist Legacy
*Marshall's Federalist Law & Asserting National Supremacy (McCulloch v. Maryland, 1819)
*Because of the importance of the case, use McCulloch v. Maryland to illustrate how the Supreme Court sought to assert federal power over state laws.
*J45/ A: The court was dominated by John Marshall, a committed Federalist. Three principles dominated his policies and shaped the nation's understanding of the Constitution: judicial review authority (Judicial Review), the supremacy of national laws, and traditional property rights. Courts now routinely overturn state laws that infringe of the U.S. Constitution.
*Table 7.1 "Major Decisions of the Marshall Court / Debate the following resolution: "John Marshall was more influential than any of the Republican presidents during the 1801-1825 period." This will help you weigh the relative influence of Marshall and his "Federalist" legacy as opposed to the Republican vision of Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe.
*Upholding Vested Property Rights
*The Diplomacy of John Quincy Adams / Adams-Onis Treaty (Florida, 1819)
*Monroe Doctrine (A MUST!!!) (beginning of Imperialism?)

Exam Alert: The 1998 AP U.S. History DBQ asked students to assess the accuracy of the characterization of Jeffersonian Republicans as strict constructionists of the Constitution and Federalists as loose constructionists in the period between 1801 and 1817. Ask students to consider why the two parties are frequently characterized in this way based on their positions in the 1790s. What examples from each party can they produce that would support or refute these characteristics?
