French Revolution to the American Revolution?

There were a few similarities between the two, but in actuality, they are quite different. While they both were cases of frustration and unfair treatment, and both were successful in achieving what they'd been fighting for, the core of the fighting and what the people did about it was completely different. Both Revolutions involved overthrowing a system of government, a rebellious act, but why and how in both cases were very different.
Think of it this way - the Americans did it with class. They did it right. They planned every step and every move of their fight, and knew exactly why they were fighting. There were no ifs, ands, or buts - all of the Americans involved with the war were guided by their hearts, and they each worked consistently toward their common goal - to be free. The French, however, had no plan what so ever. They were hungry and poor, and no matter how many times they told the ignorant and greedy people who ruled their world about it, nothing was done. People were dying, and they didn't like it. So they started mobs and rallies, which eventually led to all-out war. It was messy, and unorganized. Unlike the American Revolution, which was, while not the cleanest, but still it was organized and swift. Plus, they were fighting against two very different opponents. King Louis XIV was weak and wimpy. What did he do when his people began to rally? He cried and ran for the hills. King George, however, did not run. He tried, smartly and deftly, to keep a firm hand on his people, but that was no easy feat. The world, back them, was vast, and the Atlantic was a quite a large mass of water, separating the two continents almost infinitely. He couldn't rule over them in an orderly fashion from that far, so he was defeated. And the people were just too different too. The Americans wanted with all their heart to rule over themselves. The French just wanted to feel that they weren't being ignored. (They also didn't want to starve either.) So they really are hard to compare, similarity wise.
