When the United States entered the War of 1812, it was united in support of the war?

Question

True or false?

Answer 1

It was not. False.

"The war, though not long, had been tremendously hard on the United States. The country was divided at home, and, as it had during the Revolution, found that republican principles were not conducive to fighting a war. However, the new republic had stood its ground, maintained control of the Great Lakes, and finally defeated the British Army at New Orleans. Peace was surely welcome, but not, as Adams believed, at any price."

Answer 2

False. It wasn't called Mr. Madison's War for nothing. New England was not happy at all.
