For your second written assignment, I want you to first read pages 102-110 in your Voices of Freedom reader, which includes Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" and a brief Loyalist response. After reading, I want you then to compose a short written response that addresses the following questions.
1. What practical arguments does Paine present in favor of the independence of the American colonies? Name and discuss at least two.
2. Many scholars consider this document vital in swinging public opinion toward independence in early 1776. Why do you think it was so effective in this regard?
Your response should be about 1-2 pages double spaced.
