Answer: A. wishful thinking, leading them to hope that the British will meet their requests

Explanation:

Patrick Henry gave a speech to the Virginia Convention titled Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death. In it he presented his case for why the Colony of Virginia should join the Revolution against the British.

He inquired of them as to why they still held the belief that the British would accede to their requests when their actions in the past decade up to that point had shown otherwise and pointed out to them that if the British wanted to negotiate, they would not have shown up with so huge an army.
