Enlarge this image
詹姆士门罗 (James Monroe) 于18231017日写信给汤玛斯杰佛逊寻求建议

门罗询问了杰佛逊与前总统詹姆士麦迪逊,他们都建议美国应该和英国合作。但是当时门罗的国务卿约翰昆西亚当斯 (John Quincy Adams) 却不这样认为。他认为美国应该走自己的路,不要和英国站在同一边。


Both Jefferson and former President James Madison, whom Monroe also consulted, recommended cooperation with Britain. Monroe's Secretary of State, John Quincy Adams, however, had a different idea. He thought the U.S. should follow a course independent of Britain.
