As of March 7, 2004
* Added a new article, The Dangers of Combining Politics And Religion
http://members.tripod.com/~candst/pol1800.htm
This article covers what some have called the "dirtiest election
campaign ever held in America--the presidential election of 1800.
Considering this is an election year it is quite timely, even more so since
religion is playing such a large role in the current elections, just as it
did in 1800. In this article you will find a couple of pamphlets that were
published at that time that cannot be found anywhere else on the Internet
that the general public has access to. The pamphlets are: Serious
Considerations on the Election of a President: Addressed to the Citizens of
the United States. Rev. William Linn, Rev. John Mitchell Mason (New York
1800) and A Vindication of Thomas Jefferson; Against the Charges Contained
in a Pamphlet Entitled, "Serious Considerations on the Election of a
President: Addressed to the Citizens of the United States" by Clinton,
DeWitt, 1769-1828
