Second Influence


The second influence is that Samuel Adams inspired others. Adams was a person who didn’t give up easily. For example, he tried three different careers until he finally hit the jackpot with politics. Another example of this is that he kept persevering and believing that America was going to be a free country one day. Adams never gave up and he and the citizens reached their goals.
Adams was also a leader. He could take control of something “and fire any heart with a desire to become a patriot,” which is exactly what he had done during the town meeting after the killing of several men during the Boston Massacre. Adams was not only a leader; he was a devoted person as well. Samuel Adams spent most of his entire life learning, studying, and reading and writing about politics. He just couldn’t stop. It was his true passion and what he craved. Even though his political career didn’t start off the way he would had hoped, Adams never gave up; he just worked harder. Another trait that may inspire others is his aggressive tactics. Adams always played things a little risky. For example instead of describing the “Boston Massacre” how it most likely happened, he over exaggerated it by using propaganda. Adams has inspired many people with his many traits. These traits help Americans really realize what a true Patriot he was.
