Hey there!

No, the College Board would not want you to write a paragraph such as that one.

This paragraph does not contain much detail about why Thomas Jefferson was a bad person, and just because he owned slaves, is insufficient to determine whether he should be studied in history. Good, strong, paragraphs contain reasons supported by facts of why someone was good, or bad, not based on the writer's opinion.

Additionally, for a strong paragraph, you would want to consider whether there are any opposing arguments on whether he was a good person, such as the things he made better for the country, and acknowledge them.

Let me know if this helps :)

common sense was a pamphlet by thomas paine which advocated the independence of the thirteen colonies from great britain.

americans had many intangible advantages. well since the british fought a war far from home military orders, troops, and supplies sometimes took months to reach their destinations, and the british had an extremely difficult objective. they had to persuade the americans to give up their claims of independence, americans had a grand cause: fighting for their rights, their independence and their liberty. this cause is much more just than waging a war to deny independence.
