What
would John Jay do in the competitive 21st Century’s global
marketplace? President John Jay understood the value of real estate in
establishing competitive markets that benefited his fellow citizens and U.S.
trading partners. Peace Commissioner Jay, against the orders of his government,
eliminated the French from participating in the Treaty of Paris negotiations to
protect the United States’ claim to the Northwest Territory and North American
trade route navigation. Foreign Secretary Jay ignored the directives of his
government to acquiesce Mississippi River navigation rights to Spain thus laying
the foundation to acquire both the Louisiana and West Florida Territories
acquisitions in 1803. Chief Justice and Minister Plenipotentiary to Great
Britain Jay averted a second 18th Century war with Great Britain by
negotiating a 1794 Treaty insuring peaceful international trade while protecting
the vast western holdings of the United States during the French Revolutionary
Wars. Jay, like Thomas Jefferson and Richard Henry Lee, believed that the
peaceful and lawful acquisition of territory and trading routes for the United
States was the Keystone to national wealth and prosperity.
The
Global Market and John Jay
In
this age of global markets and economics the United States is both the world’s
economic and military superpower. In this fortuitous time of plenty, our
leaders should heed the examples of John Jay (Northwest Territory), Thomas
Jefferson (Louisiana Purchase), James Monroe (Florida Purchase), James K. Polk
(Oregon Territory and the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo) and William H. Seward
(Alaska), who simply wanted to BUY LAND for the United States of America.
Jay
would see the securing of southern United States borders (2000 miles) as a much
simpler task if the Mexican Baja Peninsula and northern Mexican States were
annexed (1000 mile border) by the United States. Greenland could become Obama’s
Ice Box or McCain’s Folly with some Presidential vision and a Congressional
checkbook.

Furthermore, to compete effectively in the world’s trade markets John Jay,
especially after learning of the success the British had in Hong Kong, would
readily endorse acquiring or leasing strategically located real estate parcels
on the other continents. Fee simple acquisition or long term leases of
“City-Territories” within emerging nations and markets would be a “no
brainer” Act of Congress for Jay. Synergizing entrepreneurship to
effectively compete in the global economy by peacefully acquiring new territory
for the United States would be a strategic plan in a 2009 John Jay Presidential
Administration.
