In this project, you will play the role of a newspaper editor in March of 1861. You'll write an editorial in which you'll try to bring forth some clear, sane, and practical points as to why the nation should do all that it can to avoid going to war. Please write it as if you were there, dealing with the events of the time. Directions
Be sure to answer these questions in your paper:

What are the social (slavery) and political (states' rights) problems facing the nation?
Would going to war solve either issue; why or why not?
Would compromise solve either issue; why or why not?
What is the best solution of the two?
Your finished editorial should be at least 250 words long.
