@@breequeen2441 he's very well experienced in history and politics and stuff like that, he would actually do pretty well as president considering the fact he knows American history and government very well
@@Silentassassins229 knowing American history doesn’t make a good politician. The way I pick who I want in office is by observing what they promise to do for the community. All we know about him is that he knows his history, but that doesn’t make him qualified to be president. We know he can talk to kids really well, but what about adults, the voters of America? How good are his problem solving skills? I love heimler, don’t get me wrong, and he totally saved my history grade... but I feel like “heimler for president” is a little dramatic. Also, being a politician in this age isn’t a compliment lol
My notes: Wilmot Proviso which would have prohibited slavery in new territories won from Mexican American War was turned down. - Positions of those in power in regards to expansion of slavery into the territories - Southern Position ○ Believed slavery was a constitutional right ○ Cited Missouri Compromise and said the line should continue to the Pacific Ocean as to where slavery could exist and where it could not ○ Any attempt to curtail slavery was a move to the South's destruction - Free Soil movement ○ Composed of Northern Democrats and Whigs § Some abolitionists ○ Wanted new territories acquired to be the dominion of free laborers § Not necessarily about morality of slavery § Wanted white opportunity in these territories - Popular Sovereignty ○ Argued that the people living in each territory should decide the slavery question for themselves Exceedingly bitter fight between these three positions and there was no way to compromise - With so much land that entered after the war, the debate became even worse - With admission of California and New Mexico as free states, it tipped the balance of slave states vs free states in the senate - Each state was equal in the senate so that no law could be passed to stop or prevent slavery since all votes would be 50-50 - Southern states were outraged that the two states were admitted as free because it meant the Senate was now unbalanced To solve these problems, Henry Clay proposed the compromise of 1850 to calm the tensions - Proposed Mexican Cession divided into Utah and New Mexico territories and would practice popular sovereignty - California admitted as free state - Slave trade banned in Washington DC - Stricter Fugitive Slave Act The fugitive slave act erased any calming of tensions the treaty might have other had - Any slave that escaped to free states could now be captured by their owners and brought back - Additionally, if any citizen in the north knew about a runaway slave, they were required by law to turn them in
@@all_a_asian9647 Yes I do, best thing to do is talk about what came right before. For instance war of 1812 i talk about the revolutionary war. The great awakening i talk about the pendulum of faith switching from more conservative to religious movements. Cold war i talk about the end of ww2 and status of the world. That seems to be the easiest way for me.
I’m in no way close to here in my current unit but the way you teach history is so chill that I’m still watching anyways. Your channel is way too underrated.
as a student who is an USH and not APUSH because my teacher uses your videos, I wish you'd include pictures, I really do like your videos, we use them a lot.
The practice of the Vice President of the United States serving as the tie-breaking vote in the Senate is established by the United States Constitution. Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution states that the Vice President shall be the President of the Senate and shall have the casting vote in case of a tie.
I think that a very important thing to note that you did not note is that popular sovereignty is a misnomer for what it actually stood for. Popular does mean people and sovereignty does mean power, but the definition you provided can only be true if black people are excluded from "people". Popular sovereignty really means white democracy, nothing else.
Sir, are you aware that New Mexico didn’t become a state until 1912? Around four minutes into your video you say New Mexico came in as a free state along with California around 1850.
hello there, i dont mean to force my religion on you at all. but Jesus is the messiah. he is the lord and savior of the world. please turn to him and repent from your sins! let's worship the Lord together!! Amen! Glory to the Lord almighty!A
I don’t mean force my religion on you but now I’m gonna do it any way! That is literally what you are doing idgaf about god ok I have my own gods and they don’t use fear tactics to make me believe in them. Comments like this are annoying and rude and saying your not trying to force religion doesn’t mean you now not doing it just don’t comment shit like this
@@tjclark1504 just cause you can say it doesn’t mean you should and it doesn’t take away from the fact that their comment was uncalled for. I don’t need to hear about Christianity every place I look it’s not the only religion and I should be able to have the ability to practice my religion in peace without Christians getting mad and coming in comments saying how their god loves me or that I’m going to hell.
@@runningmeadow1356 also it’s mega sus that this is literally the only comment on thier channel It’s almost like it was a burner account to spam pro-Christianity messages in comment sections (AGAIN YOU CAN SAY IT ITS JUST NOT NECESSARY IN 95% OF SITUATIONS)
