詹姆士‧門羅 (James
Monroe) 於1823年10月17日寫信給湯瑪斯‧傑佛遜尋求建議
門羅詢問了傑佛遜與前總統詹姆士‧麥迪遜,他們都建議美國應該和英國合作。但是當時門羅的國務卿約翰‧昆西‧亞當斯 (John
Quincy Adams) 卻不這樣認為。他認為美國應該走自己的路,不要和英國站在同一邊。
Both Jefferson and former President James Madison, whom Monroe also consulted, recommended cooperation with Britain. Monroe's Secretary of State, John Quincy Adams, however, had a different idea. He thought the U.S. should follow a course independent of Britain.
