After considering the document, create an persuasive essay analyzing the primary source. How you formulate your argument is completely up to you. You can argue the content of the document itself, the context in which it was presented, the implications of the writing, or even the relevance of the document to the modern day. This is entirely up to you so long as you present an argument in the form of a thesis and then support that argument in the supporting paragraphs.
Essay:
After you have carefully read the document, you will need to write an argumentative essay on the reading. The format for the essay is as follow:
Introduction:
Write an introductory paragraph that describes the argument you intend to make in your paper. This introduction will include a thesis statement stating what you intend to prove or argue in the body of your writing. The direction and flow of your paper is largely driven by the quality of thesis you present in your introduction so be sure that you have a clear and focused thesis.
Body Paragraphs:
Write supporting paragraphs that support the argument presented in your thesis. These supporting paragraphs should use the source document to support your position as well as any other outside sources you used in order to support your argument. There is no maximum to the number of supporting paragraphs that you can use to make your argument, but be sure to keep you paper focused on your argument and do not fill it with irrelevant material.
Conclusion:
Write a conclusion paragraph that re-frames your argument and sums up the overall essay.
The essays must contain a clear thesis statement.
It can use any additional sources, but must use the provided primary source as part of the writing.
Minimum length is 1000 words not including citations. There is no maximum.
It must be typed in Times New Roman, 12 point font, double spaced, with standard 1″ page margins

My Thesis sentence, not that good. I agree with the Kentucky Resolutions, the states should have the ability to nullify federal laws that are not specifically stated in the Constitution to protect the peoples rights by creating limitations and separations of powers.
