In order for political cartoons to be effective one needs to be up on current events.  As most people at the time were well informed of the state of affairs the political cartoon was effective in uniting the colonist.  The cartoon was drawn to unite the colonist during the French and Indian war but its greatest effect was in the American Revolution.

H4. One of the two similarities is the assumption of human rights.  The second one is the free market economy.  The most striking difference was land ownership.  In England it was rare for someone to own land but in America it was easy to own land.  Another difference was work ethic as the working class British had lost the ability to better themselves.

H5. George Washington was great but he is considered great for the wrong reasons. The current picture of George Washington is a great general and president.  In reality he was one of the worst generals in American history.  His few victories were a result of his quartermasters’ ability to move men and supplies.  The thing that makes him truly great is his leadership and his ability to judge men.
