In his pamphlet common sense, published in january, 1776, thomas paine used the everyday language of the colonists to express his feelings about great britain. excerpt from common sense by thomas paine as to government matters, it is not in the powers of britain to do this continent justice: the business of it will soon be too weighty, and intricate, to be managed with any tolerable degree of convenience, by a power so distant from us, and so very ignorant of us; for if they cannot conquer us, they cannot govern us. to be always running three or four thousand miles with a tale or a petition, waiting four or five months for an answer, which when obtained requires five or six more to explain it in, will in a few years be looked upon as folly and childishness—there was a time when it was proper, and there is a proper time for it to cease. drag the central argument paine presents and its two claims to complete the chart. argument claims the distance from england to america is too far from england to properly govern america the time it takes to travel between the two countries makes governing and communication too diffcult to be effective britain is unable to properly govern america britain has given the american colonies too low a priority to be able to oversee their economies properly the american colonists are too resistant to british rule remain content as britain's dependentes

Britain is unable to properly govern America is  correct. I'm taking the test.

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
