My Davy Crocket wasn't on my Edmodo, but it was graded in Comm Arts. Cotton was important to the farmers because it was a high revenue crop. Slave labor was used to harvest and produce the crop, including de-seeding and packaging so they could ship. The cotton plant had sharp barbs that would cut the slaves hands and lower legs while watering and harvesting. The harversting, tilling, planting, and watering all required slaves to bend over. On top of this, the slaves were treated poorly and had unadequate food. RR
 * Criterion (South)**
 * Why was cotton/slave labor so important to the South's economy?**

Why

Were very harsh and unadequate for the considered age group that was working. The workers were forced to work tedious hours, sometimes up to 14 hours per day. Thje workers would then retreat to their cots, above the noisy factory, to try to quick catch some sleep so they could repeat the cycle all over again. The workers food and loging was often taken out of their paychecks, which is what we would kidk in the dirt now days. The work day ment you had to deal with hundreds of moving parts and dusty air that was inproperly ventilated. Altough extreme, the dust could lead to blindness and resptirory problems, and in extreme cases cancer or loss of sight. RR
 * North criterian**
 * Summarize the northern working conditions**

The nothern working conditions weren't good. people had to breath in bad air. People cut their fingers on the machines. Dust got in everyones eyes. __><__ people were blinded by the dust. DS

The main differences between the two parts of the country's political views is the take on slavery- should it be banned, like the north would prefer, or is it legal, like the south would prefer? The north didn't use slavery, but rather women and children who had below minimum pay. The south used slave labor in the harvesting and processing of cotton. The slaves would care from the plant from planting to shipping. Slavery was not right in the north's mind set because they did not require the use of slaves. The South thought that both slavery and cotton were king in their economy, and the cotton sometimes ended up in the north's textile mills. Either way, both the north and the south could have used slavery in their work place and economy. RR
 * How did the Northern politics differ form the South in the opinion of slavery?**

 * Used time more productivly || Unfair wages ||
 * Used a natrual source of energy || Unfair work/labor ||
 * Interchangeable parts allowed for fast production || Usually workers were women or young children ||
 * Increase cotton purchases || Long hours (up to 14 hours per day) ||
 * Demand of cotton increased productivity in South || Increased slave labor in South ||

John Quincy Adams The Corrupt Bargain basicaly had a presidential running mate Henry Clay convince the senate to choose John Quincy Adams over Andrew Jackson. This may seam pretty crazy but even Clay knew he would not be elected. Since one day Clay would like to become the President, he knew that supporting Adams would get him appointed to the position of secretary of state by Adam's. If you became Secretary of State, you were pretty likely to become the next president according to historical events. Even though he knew his wouldn't help him right away, it benefited both Adam's and Clay in the long run. Jackson was furious about the election happenings. Although Clay never became president, his fame was short lived as Secretary of State.
