B+
George Washington
1787-1797
George Washington was a good president. I would give him a B+. The reason why I would give him this grade is
because he made some good chooses for the country but at the same time he also stepped on some rights to get
there. A example was during the whiskey rebellion he sent troops to stop the protest which mean he take their
freedom of speech away. On the other hand he got the ex-protesters to pay tax which helped to ensure domestic
tranquility. What also make Washington a some what good president was when he agreed to Hamiltons
economic plan it was good because it help promote the general welfare because are country is wealthy today
because the economy is based on manufacturing. Its also bad because Hamiltons economic plan takes taxes
from the whole country but only the north benefits.
John Adams 1797 1801
C-
John Adams was a needs improvement president. I would give him a D+. The reason why I would give him this grade is
because his made a lot of bad judgment calls when it comes the United States. For example was during the Alien and Sedition
he did two bad things. First was when he did pass the Alien and Sedition Act some states did go against this federal
government and some political party are starting to divide the country because some states agreed other didnt . By doing this
he failed at forming a more perfect union . The other reason why he didnt pass was he failed to secure the blessings of liberty.
He take away peoples rights to free speech and freedom to press thats why he failed. The reason why he didnt get an F is
because he did do some good things like when he created the jay treaty because it got the British troops out of America but it
also made the France angry so that made them enemies .This was good at providing for the common defense. The X,Y,Z affair
is another thing he did good because he formed a more perfect union by making him the common enemies among the country.
He also he settle peacefully and broke alliances with France allowing the U.S. to be isolated again
Thomas Jefferson was a give and take president. I would give him a B-. The reason I would give him this is because
during the Louisiana Purchase he went against the constitution when he brought land from the France which then
violated to establish justice . But on the other hand he did promote the general welfare at the same time. The way
that it did help was it allowed the U.S. to grow more crops and sell goods as well as make them. Other reason why
he got a B- was because what he did when dealing with the France and Britain. During this time the control on
providing for the common defense was half and half. On one hand when Jefferson asked the France to stop taking
American sailors they just keep taking them but on the other hand the embargo stopped the American ships from
being attacked .Another way he provide for the common defense was during Piracy On The Barbary Coast when he
sent warships to protect American trading ships. But it was bad because it didnt stop Piracy On The Barbary Coast.
What's bad is the pirates keep taking good from American ships which did not help promote the general welfare.
Thomas Jefferson 1801-1809
B-
James Madison1809-1817
D-
James Madison was a all around bad president. I would give him a D-. The reason why I would give
him this grade is during his term he did less then a handful of good things for his people. In his
time served he has failed to fulfill his the goals of the constitution. For example was during the war
of 1812 and dealing with the France and Britain. In Madison did not provide for the thing
common defense it just made thins worse and they continued to take are sailors and ships were
being taken and stink. Trust me it gets a lot worse he also divided the country. The South and West
wanted to go to war but New England doesnt because they weren't ready for war. During the
Indian war he did a lot of good for example he promoted the general welfare by ambling us to settle
in the new lands so we can profit from it and he made the western land safe for settlers which
ensured domestic tranquility.
James Monroe1819-
1825
B
James Monroe was a he knows it best president. I would give him an B. The reason why I would give this is
because did well a promoting the general welfare. One of the ways he did this was the Monroe Doctrine which
allowed the U.S. to trade with Latin America. Another way was during the Panic of 1819 it was more
complex it was good and bad. What was bad about the Panic was Monroe didnt do much to try and fix the
economy, on the other hand he lowered taxes so people would have more money. He also did good at
providing for the common defense. The way he did this was with the Adams-Onis Treaty what he did with it
was get the Spanish out of Florida and the U.S. now controls it.
Andrew Jackson1829-1837
C
Andrew Jackson is a pro and cons president. I would give him a C the reason why I would give him this grade
is because during his term he did a lot of good things but at the same time it was bad,. What I mean is during
the Indian removal he did good at forming a more perfect union by making the whites happy by removing the
Indians. But its also bad because it creates division between the Indians and the white. The spoils system is
another example of this but this time its for to establish justice. The way he did this is he removed all the
Indians from their homeland The bad thing was he only gave job to his friends by letting anyone be part of a
small part of government. The good thing was he created more job opportunities for the people
