Good video it encapsulates what Paine was saying namely that we are not British we are Americans, Yankees if you will. and if so we should carve out our own destiny. John Quincy Adams put it u=this way. "America is extra-European."
I so enjoyed the cogent, however too brief, telling of Mister Thomas Paine's inspiring observation of the actions that the Americans were involved in, and needed to pursue. Those actions would eventually gain their independence, and hence my family's, and all future peoples that have traveled to these shores, to gain their independence, and their citizenship in our wonderful United States of America.
Hello Reading Through History, im an 8th grader i would like to ask you permission to this video on our website, Please reply ASAP if you can grant us the right to place on our website, and how you want us to cite it under.
+Eva Graal That would be perfectly fine. Just cite or link back to our main RU-vid page if you would like. Any credits can simply be given to Reading Through History.
I hope you are not confusing classical liberals and progressives. Today, classical liberals are libertarians and progressives are socialists. Paine would be considered a libertarian as would Jefferson and others.
You "historians" will reference everything about the philosophy and the the basis of those arguments except the main arguments which stemmed for lessons in the CHRISTIAN BIBLE! I guess I will be making a video referencing these strictly Christian principals Paine structured his arguments around. Shame!
