This is a slide show. One of the earliest leaks in U.S.
history played a key role in stoking tensions between Great Britain and
the American colonies. Benjamin Franklin leaked letters by the loyalist
Thomas Hutchinson recommending a stronger Br...itish presence in Boston. Hutchinson was forced out of the colonies.There are more modern ones, too, but they all show the importance of what the public should know and what should be a secret. A great topic for a debate. Younger students may not know of these people, but the topic could be of value.

The term empire might not technically be an accurate way of describing the United States of America. Because the goal of U.S. foreign policy is to protect the country’s own interests and territory, it is by definition not an empire. However, the Unit...ed States’ influence of the rest of the world is still undeniable. Throughout the twentieth century, the country dominated the music, film and financial worlds, while also making headway in both the science and technology milieus. In this video, WatchMojo.com explores the rise and dominance of this world power. (3:22)

This is an informative video of the history of the United States. The presidency of Lincoln and Roosevelt are discussed. Roosevelt knew that the fight for the United States Presidency was not simply a game of political machines and punditry, but that... this coming fight demanded a leader who understood the historic enemy of the United States and the founding principles of the nation.
