Excerpt: ... of number, and it was moved that the blank be filled with " one person." Randolph suggested that there be three members, to be drawn from the different portions of the country.1 This idea of balancing the sections, Eastern, Middle and Southern, appears repeatedly in the course of the debates. It was urged that the arguments for a plural executive were based on an anticipated unpopularity of the new Constitution rather than on principle;* that all thirteen of the States had agreed upon a single executive, and that a plural one would foment uncontrolled, continued and violent animosities. The decision in favor of a single executive was carried by a vote of seven States to three.3 After some discussion of the veto power, in which an absolute veto, a suspensive veto and no veto at all were each advocated, a vote was taken on the first and last suggestions, resulting in their unanimous rejection; and the revisionary power, subject to overruling by two-thirds of both branches of the legislature, was decided upon. It is interesting that this power should have been given at all, for, in the States, only Massachusetts had given her Governor a veto. The matter now seemed settled; there was to be a single executive, chosen by the national legislature for a term of seven years and ineligible thereafter, having a revisionary check on legislation. But the leven of dissatisfaction with such a mode was steadily working and produced no less than seventeen different suggestions before the Convention finally adopted the principle, in part, of Wilson's motion of June 2d. After a vote for the reconsideration of the mode of election, Gerry moved4 " that the national executive should be elected by the executives of the States, whose proportion of votes should...

Download or read book 1803 written by Robert Burgett and published by . This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fascinating examination of the Twelfth Amendment and Article II of the Constitution, historian Robert Burgett demonstrates the powerful forces at work that forced the rise of competing national parties, and how the Twelfth Amendment was designed to combat this destructive trend. Burgett takes the reader back to a time when the Union was not yet truly united, by drawing parallels with a hypothetical future North-South American Union. Quoting source material from drafters of the Constitution, and using electoral results and statements of belief from prominent statesmen such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams, Burgett shows us how geographical divides influenced party politics, and how the role of the vice president has been distorted in comparison to how it was originally conceived. Allowing his thesis to rise naturally from the facts, rather than cherrypicking facts to fit a preconceived thesis, Burgett presents a powerful case for Article II of the Constitution forcing the rise of competing national parties, and the Twelfth Amendment as a much-needed alteration to ensure inappropriate geo-political control over the federal government. 1803 is as gripping a narrative as it is educational, giving the reader food for thought, and a much better understanding of a widely misunderstood issue.

Download or read book The Revolution of 1800 written by James J. Horn and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2002-12-29 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George W. Bush and Al Gore were by no means the first presidential hopefuls to find themselves embroiled in a hotly contested electoral impasse. Two hundred years earlier, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams endured arguably the most controversial and consequential election in American history. Focusing on the wide range of possible outcomes of the 1800-1801 melee, this collection of essays situates the American "Revolution of 1800" in a broad context of geo-political and racial developments in the Atlantic world as a whole. In essays written expressly for this volume, leading historians of the period examine the electoral, social, and political outcome of Jefferson's election in discussions strikingly relevant in the aftermath of the 2000 election.
