Discuss the positions of the three factions and explain which was the most persuasive and effective in achieving its goals

*** The First and Second Continental Congress were shaped by differing opinions from the three parties. each faction provided convincing arguments for their positions. However, the one that was most persuasive and effective in achieving its goals were the radicals due to their beliefs about the Stamp Act, having independence, Boston Tea Party and the Galloway's Plan.
***The Stamp Act were one of the first laws to ever pass by the Parliament. Its main concept was to tax American colonists for items that had a daily usage. The Parliament would tax on all printed materials, from newspaper and will to marriage licenses, tea and even playing cards. At first, many Americans did not have a problem with that taxation until Patrick Henry declared British was simply taxing without representation. Colonists who had position of attorneys and businessmen where affected massively. Radicals already believed in achieving independence from Britain and this was one of the few problems that led the radicals to complete their dream. The delegates issued Declaration of Rights because lack of representation in Parliament. The Radicals responded to this act by boycotting items that were being taxed. British government realized that the Stamp Act was a political and economic debacle so they repealed it.
***The first Continental Congress was develop as a response to the Intolerable Acts. The Congress had three factions, the Radicals, Moderates and Conservatives. The most persuasive were the radicals. The radicals were straight forward and tire of the Parliament with their taxation and strict laws. They believed that the colonies relationship with Britain had already passed will not receive any grants or advantage while being under their crown. The radicals force Britain to proceed to change laws or they wanted independence. The Parliament did not take in the beliefs of the radicals and along came the Tea Act.
***Many colonists continued to boycott British tax items, especially the tea. Some colonists began to smuggle tea but fail to realized that paying for British tea would be cheaper because the British East India Company had enormous amount. The colonists could purchase tea at a lower cost than ever, but they believed that the British government was making them pay for the tea tax. The radicals response to this scheme was violence and some continued to boycott more. This eventually led to the Boston Tea Party. The Radicals response was to board the ships and dump every cargo of tea in sight. The British government had enough of Boston and decide to challenge the colonists with the Intolerable Acts. These acts showed the colonists who was still in charge of the colonies.
***Lastly, the Galloway's Plan were another achieving goal for the radicals plans. The Galloway's Plan were to veto the British's Acts without violence taken place. The conservatives wanted the British and its colonies to have the relationship of the French and Indian. Their relationship was a hand in hand relationship, but the Parliament was to greedy for that. The Galloway's Plan was defeated and this lead the radicals to take charge and become closer to their dreams of independence.
