During this period referring to Sam's patch and the period 1800-1837; the industrial revolution is underway. Large factories are produced in large coastal cities. The production of new and old products is increasing, as is the demand. People work day in and day out in factories simply living another day but hoping to eventually be able to afford the products they create themselves. However, that being said, of course, those who own these increasingly elusive companies were making very obtainable money and power. This creates the three social classes we live in today, upper class, middle class and poverty. So this starts to bring us into a common modern America; where the reactions of the American people have to somehow find common ground with each other and empower celebrities and support someone with similar lifestyles and beliefs to help give that group of citizens a voice and the ability to possibly change for a change something; this was also used in reverse, where a person with power seeking more support would become familiar with and become a celebrity with a specific group. Whether for political, racial, economic, and/or religious reasons, the American people would idolize someone who was their mascot, so to speak. This tactic can be implemented through the actions of everyday laborer “Sam Patch, a laborer who, in 1820, became America's first professional daredevil. Patch jumped from high places next to waterfalls. Journalists wrote about him, crowds came to see him, kids imagined they were him, and... he was a factory boy who became a celebrity. America in various ways… middle of the paper… popular sovereignty and majority rule. With Andrew Jackson he came from a humble beginning and could understand the minority and get their support as much as the majority economically and what he could do for both classes. Even over time, this way of gaining the support of a common majority and/or a minority to express the opinion of that group has survived throughout the Americas in these cases: women's rights, Fredrick Douglass and his fight against slavery, Martin Luther King and the fight against racism, and now our celebrities speak and are idolized for and by the people they were like Jay-Z and Kendrick Lamar. Those who seek power connect as best they can with those who give them just that, and those who seek a voice give those who have a greater common understanding a chance to speak for them in the hope of being heard..
