20 giug 1796 anni - Washington farewell address

Descrizione:

key people:
George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson.

quotes from important speeches or policy documents:
“overgrown military establishments, which, under any form of government, are inauspicious to liberty, and which are to be regarded as particularly hostile to Republican Liberty.”

“Promote, then, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge. In proportion as the structure of a government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion should be enlightened.”

“Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”

examples of actions that reflect the policy: Presidents are re-elected every four years, people are taught equal despite their religion, people have the ability to vote for our government.
