After asking my professor for help with the essay she provided me with the folowing message:
“Just think about the “how” – how did they change things or make something happen. Here’s a example just focused on the national bank.
For more than a year, Jefferson and Hamilton’s debated the need for a national bank. Jefferson argued that a national bank was unconstitutional and wasn’t necessary because it would only benefit the wealth. Hamilton on the other hand argued that in order for the United States to become a participant in the world economy, a national bank was needed to consolidate economic resources and funds. Although they disagreed initially on the idea of a national bank and both attempted to persuade President Washington to support them, ultimately Washington supported Hamilton and the creation of a national bank which allowed the United States to become a industrialized nation and compete in a world economy.
In this case the last sentence would be the thesis. Remember the thesis can be complex and doesn’t have to one sentence.”
