Contrasting How did the process of electing a president change after
the election of 1800?

Thomas Jefferson eventually won in 1800 after 36 votes in the House of Representatives, which forever changed how presidential elections were held. This election exposed the weaknesses of Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution, which instructed how the president was to be elected. After the 1800 election, these weaknesses were addressed by the adoption of the 12th Amendment. This pivotal election also saw the advent of the two-party political system. During the 1787 Constitutional Convention, a dispute arose over how the president was to be elected. Some wanted Congress to elect the executive, some wanted the president chosen by state legislatures, and yet others wanted the president elected by popular vote. As a compromise, it was established that the president would be chosen by electors equal to a state’s congressional representatives. Initially, the choosing of electors and how they would vote was left up to the state legislatures. In the modern era, the electors from each state, except Maine and Nebraska, vote for the candidate popularly chosen by a state’s voters. Electors from Maine and Nebraska cast representational votes based upon the proportion of votes for each candidate.

Explanation:

the captain of a steam ship naturally chooses the shortest route to his destination. since a sailing ship is usually pushed by winds and currents, its captain must find a route where the wind will probably blow in the right direction. tacking, i.e. using contrary wind to pull (sic) the sails, was always possible but wasted time because of the zigzagging required, and this would significantly delay long voyages. the early european explorers were not only looking for new lands. they also had to discover the pattern of winds and currents that would carry them where they wanted to go. during the age of sail winds and currents determined trade routes and therefore influenced european imperialism and modern political geography. for an outline to the main wind systems see global wind patterns.

pilotage or cabotage, in one sense, is the art of sailing along the coast using known landmarks. navigation, in one sense, is the art of sailing long distances out of sight of land.[1] although the polynesians were able to sail the pacific (with great difficulty) and people regularly sailed north and south across the mediterranean, before the time of columbus nearly all sailing was coastal pilotage

question: write a report analyzing through articles of confederation.

answer: the articles of confederation the united states constitution was written when the people feared strong government the new nation needed some kind of organization to hold states together to them fend off future attacks and make a stronger support system through the states and people the states bonded through a friendship that best served as a defense against a invasion and states were not allowed to use taxes as a way to discourage treaties, and states were extremely limited in their dealings with foreign nations the strengths were that the congress has the highest power in the nation because of   fear of monarchy congress had the sole power to declare war and assign treaties disputes between states and territorial issues were to be brought to congress and weaknesses were the lack of power given to congress the articles gave congress the power to pass laws but no power to enforce those laws if a state did not support a federal law that state could simply ignore it congress had no power to levy taxes or regulate trade.
