yank, who given that he died in 1852 most likely did not drive an MX5,

Daniel Webster, b. Salisbury, N.H., Jan. 18, 1782, d. Oct. 24, 1852,
statesman, lawyer, and orator, was his era's foremost advocate of American
nationalism. A farmer's son, he graduated from Dartmouth College in 1801.
After a legal apprenticeship, Webster opened a legal practice in Portsmouth,
N.H., in 1807.
Rising quickly as a lawyer and Federalist party leader, Webster was elected
(1812) to the U.S. House of Representatives because of his opposition to the
War of 1812, which had crippled New England's shipping trade. After two more
terms in the House, Webster left Congress in 1816 and moved to Boston. Over
the next six years, he won major constitutional cases before the Supreme Court
(most notably, DARTMOUTH COLLEGE V. WOODWARD, GIBBONS V. OGDEN, and MCCULLOCH
V. MARYLAND), establishing himself as the nation's leading lawyer and an
outstand outstanding orator. In 1823, Webster was returned to Congress from
Boston, and in 1827 he was elected senator from Massachusetts.
