3. Your sketch should take a stand on whether it was appropriate for the U.S. to enter the war
4. Your sketch should use evidence to support your stand

A Maximum of 5 bonus points can be earned for going the extra mile (demonstrating a mastery of more than the 3 required quotes, getting into and staying in character, incorporating a wide variety of evidence etc.).
