I picked the White house for a dinner party for a few reason. It’s the capital of the unites states, its big enough, our special guest helped pick it. The white house has plenty of space and good cooks for this kind of special occasion.
American statesman, who was secretary of state under John Quincy Adams and an unsuccessful candidate for the presidency in 1824, 1832, and 1844. He was one of the most popular and influential political leaders in American history. His genius in the art of compromise three times resolved bitter political conflicts that threatened to tear the nation apart, winning him the title The Great Pacificator.
Dear Party planner :
I am sorry to inform you that I will not be able to attend the dinner party because I’m real sick. The country is about to split up and I have been up all night writing out this compromise.I just would not like to see the country break apart. I’m sorry. Hope you guys have a good time and thanks for thinking about me . Henry Clay
In 1849, there rose to the nation's highest office a sixty-four-year-old fighting man who was so politically inexperienced he had never even voted.But it was in the late 1830s, during the second Seminole War, in Florida, that he earned his nickname "Old Rough and Ready." There, during the ferocious battle of Lake Okee-cho-bee, Taylor's toughness helped him prevail against severe attacks.

U.S Grant
Born October 9, 1782, opened a law practice in Marietta,Ohio He was a member of the Ohio Legislature in 1806. He enthusiastically fought in the War of 1812 and was appointed a colonel in the Third Ohio Regiment. He became a brigadier general in the United States Army a year later. He then served as Buchanan's secretary of state from 1857-1860 but resigned in protest against the president's decision not to reinforce the Charleston forts. He was a strong supporter of the Union and lived long enough to see the outcome of the Civil War. He died on June 17, 1866.
John was born in Kentucky on 16th March, 1822 He graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point ,1842. Pope was in the Mexican war under Zack Taylor. Pope soon made it clear he intended to develop an aggressive approach to the war. Soon after taking command he issued a proclamation to his troops: "I have come to you from the West, where we have always seen the backs of our enemies; from an army whose business it has been to seek the adversary, and to beat him where he was found; whose policy has been attack and not defense. I presume that I have been called here to pursue the same system and to lead you against the enemy. It is my purpose to do so, and that speedily."
Born around 1800, Scott migrated westward with his master, Peter Blow Dred Scott first went to trial to sue for his freedom in 1847Scott went to trial in June of 1847, but lost on a technicality -- he couldn't prove that he and Harriet were owned by Emerson's widow. The following year the Missouri Supreme Court decided that case should be retried. In an 1850 retrial, the the St Louis circuit court ruled that Scott and his family were free. The decision of the court was read in March of 1857. Chief Justice Roger B. Taney -- a staunch supporter of slavery -- wrote the "majority opinion" for the court. It stated that because Scott was black, he was not a citizen and therefore had no right to sue. The decision also declared the Missouri Compromise of 1820, legislation which restricted slavery in certain territories, unconstitutional.
Harriet Beecher was born June 14, 1811 During her life, she wrote poems, travel books, biographical sketches, and children's books, as well as adult novels. Her best was Uncle Tom’s Cabin. The book Begun as a serial for the Washington anti-slavery weekly, the National era , it focused public interest on the issue of slavery, and was deeply controversial. Many people didn’t like the book but some loved it. Uncle Toms Cabin, an antislavery novel written in 1852 is celebrated on this date. The story was written about a faithful Black slave killed by a cruel white enslaver.
Mathew Brady arrived in New York City, at the age of sixteen. Soon after taking a job as a department store clerk, he started his own small business manufacturing jewelry cases. In his spare time, Brady studied photography under a number of teachers, including Samuel F. B. Morse, the man who had recently introduced photography to America. Brady quickly discovered a natural gift. By 1844, he had his own photography studio in New York. In 1862, Brady shocked America by displaying his photographs of battlefield corpses from Antietam, posting a sign on the door of his New York gallery that read, "The Dead of Antietam." This exhibition marked the first time most people witnessed the carnage of war. The New York Times: said that Brady had brought "home to us the terrible reality and earnestness of war."
Clay was a really good president, he worked really hard so that the country would not succeed, he put his life on the line way to many times and thought I would give something back to him. Thanks to the compromise he made up he saved the USA.
Taylor is just as his nick name says, after hearing the story about this baseball I had to invite him. He was also another great president for the USA.
Grant was just all over the battle fields , after hearing about him in the Mexican war I new this young man would go along way.Grant had a good back round information after going to WestPoint.
After hearing about Cass from Buchanan‘ that Cass would do good in the future I kept my eye on him, even though him and Buchanan‘ did not agree on a lot of thing Cass did a good job as secretary of state.
Pope is very aggressive when it comes to fighting and that’s what I like. When Pope went into battle he did not mess around he went right in there and did his thing quick!
I like how Dred Scott stuck up for him self and tried to show how and slavery was, even though he did not win the law suite I still give him credit and now that slavery is over I decide to invite the man to show our respect towards the black folks!
I invited her cause I like how she stuck up for what she believed in and how she felt by writing a book that sold a lot of copies to both the north and the south.
I wanted to show how grateful we were to see the war pictures in the news paper and to show our gratitude towards photographs, and how hard it could be for him to see all the disturbing seen’s in the battle field.
Harriet what made your write that book?
I just wrote what came to my mind and how I felt.
And it was all a bunch of crap.
Well if that’s how you feel ok then! At least I didn’t go around taking pictures of dead people!
At least I didn’t stick up for no slave!
You watch it buddy!
People people people can we have a good meal with out everyone arguing?
I’m going to have to agree with him! Can we just please eat are meal and get on with it.
Good old Abe
