**Doctor Sylvester Graham** I hated the American society where people benifited from animals for food, clothing, or any other purposes as I am a veganist. Also I'm for people have abstinence for alcohol and especially masturbation. I traveled around the New England area preaching and I wanted to develope a purer mind and body.
 * Goals**

I preached to large groups around the New England area about; - Veganism - Being a Vegatarian - Temperance Movement - Abstinence for masturbation - Bathing reguraly - Being healthy - Excitement was unhealthy - To curb lust
 * Methods**

I had many successes such as; - inenting the Graham Cracker - getting people to become healthier - people batheing more often
 * Successes**

I believe that what I was preaching was practical because I was only trying to better the American society from its wikedness. There were many isssues that were present, wether or not alcohol shhould be legal or not. And I stood firmly against the legalization of it.
 * Practical???**

My campain would be a lot broader if i had more resources. If President Jackson would support my reforms, people would be flocking towards them by the thousands. Also, the legislation could put some of my ideas as laws; such as making alcohol illegal.
 * Federal Support**

John Harvey Kellogg- Kellogg like Graham made a food from whole grains because it is healthier. Also, Kellogg preached about not having a lot of sexual activities.
 * References**

Dr. A.J. Block- A doctor from New Orleans, after Graham's death, hated the idea of masturbation. Block wrote articles in the newspaper about female masturbation.
