Lines 260–268: What text evidence suggests that Bradford saw the Pilgrims as having been chosen by God?

"Thus it pleased God to vanquish their enemies."

Governor William Bradford´s account ("Of Plymouth Plantation") about the Pilgrims' first confrontation with the natives showed that, given that they won the without any fallen men, God must be on their side, meaning they had been chosen by Him.

The victory can be considered the result of the Pilgrims’ weapons being better than those of the natives, but Bradford and his men still praised God for the resolution.

obama was told in early july 2004 that he was chosen to deliver the address, and he largely wrote the speech himself, with later edits from the kerry presidential campaign.
