[edit] E.G. and U.S. foundational documents
Gerry did not sign the constitution!
[edit] E.G. and the Convention
Why would Elbridge Gerry become vice president if he was not in favor of the new govt.? He did take part.
That is addressed in the article, he changed his mind, he was publicly against the government when it was proposed and publicly for it when it came into effect.
[edit] E.G. and the French
Should it say that he was humiliated by the French? It doesen't sound like they humiliated them, disrespected them most definitely but the Americans supported his response, as to not give a cent for a bribe. One might say he was humiliated when he stayed in France but I think that would still be poor word choice. Any ideas for a different word, snubbed sounds informal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.7.64.93 (talk) 22:51, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] E.G. selection as VP
perhaps US history buffs can correct me here, but i don't think anyone has ever been "elected" to the Vice Presidency of the U.S. 71.188.87.164 (talk) 01:57, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
