He said "that form of government which it may deem most conducive to the happiness and prosperity of its own citizens.” and worried that Americans may "sympathize with the unfortunate or the oppressed everywhere in their fight for freedom, our principles forbid us from taking any part in such foreign contests," His views can be summarized as that we should focus on ourselves and our successes rather than poorer and more suffering countries. ]]> 2019-12-11 19:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jacek_dojs/2tu6ddtzih7v/wish/422927413 jacek_dojs https://padlet.com/jacek_dojs/2tu6ddtzih7v/wish/422927793 The Northern part of America was based on industry and trade.
