Shortly before going to war with Britain, President James Madison wrote a letter to the US Congress. Dated June 1, 1812, it became known as the War Message to Congress. Read this excerpt, from the letter:
We behold our seafaring citizens still the daily victims of lawless violence, committed on the great common and highway of nations, even within sight of the country which owes them protection. We behold our vessels, freighted with the products of our soil and industry, or returning with the honest proceeds of them, wrested from their lawful destinations, confiscated by prize courts no longer the organs of public law but the instruments of arbitrary edicts, and their unfortunate crews dispersed and lost, or forced or inveigled in British ports into British fleets,
Based on this excerpt, list two reasons that the United States wanted to go to war with Britain.
