why did Thomas Jefferson doubted in buying the Louisiana territory?

Answers

Answer 1

The power of purchasing land, especially land as vast as the Louisiana Territory, was something that Jefferson wasn't sure was constitutional. Nowhere in the constitution does it say that the federal government has the power to buy land. Jefferson worried that the government was overstepping its boundary.

Also, Jefferson worried that the federal government may become too powerful. He was more in favor of states rights instead of having all of the power located with the central federal government. Despite these viewpoints, Jefferson did a number of acts as president that would tilt him toward federalism as opposed to anti-federalism. One such example would be the Embargo Act of 1807.

Hurry plz Why would the courts have chosen M.E. Thompson as the rightful governor?

Answers

Answer:

Background

In the summer of 1946 Eugene Talmadge won the Democratic primary for governor for the fourth time. His election was assured because the Republican Party in Georgia was not viable and had no nominee. However, Talmadge was not healthy, and his close friends began to fear that he would not live until the November general election or would die before his inauguration in January 1947.

After a great deal of legal research, Talmadge's followers found dubious constitutional and statutory precedence for the state legislature's electing a governor if the governor-elect died before taking office. According to their findings, the General Assembly could choose between the second- and third-place vote-getters from the general election. Because no Republican candidate would be running, the Talmadge forces reasoned that a write-in candidate with enough votes statewide would be second or third behind Talmadge, and the General Assembly could choose that candidate if the situation warranted. The Talmadge stalwarts therefore chose to run Talmadge's son, Herman, as a secret write-in candidate.

There was one problem with this plan: the new state constitution created the office of lieutenant governor, which would be filled for the first time in the 1946 election. The lieutenant governor would become chief executive if the governor died in office. The constitution was not clear about whether the lieutenant governor–elect would succeed if the governor-elect died before he took the oath of office. Melvin E. Thompson, a member of the anti-Talmadge camp, was elected lieutenant governor in 1946. Naturally, the Talmadge forces were not eager for Thompson to become the next governor.

D) a two-house Congress with equal representation in the upper house and representation in the lower house based on population​

Answers

Answer:

4. A) They feared debt-ridden farmers would rebel.

5. D) a two-house Congress with equal representation in the upper house and representation in the lower house based on population.

Explanation:

After the American Revolution, farmers in Massachusetts launched Shay's Rebellion in response to perceived government neglect and the way the debt they were in was being settled by creditors.

The Federal Government was powerless to quell this rebellion because the Articles of Confederation gave them limited powers. They ended up having to rely on state militia. This showed states that a stronger Federal Government was needed.

The Great Compromise came about as states argued about the composition of the Legislature. Some wanted equal representation and others wanted representation based on population.

They then agreed to have two houses: The Senate (Upper house) which would have equal representation and the House of Representatives (Lower house) where representation was based on population.

The ""Gilded Age"" usually refers to business and worker interests in the period after Reconstruction to about 1900. What aspects of the farmers’ experiences during this time are similar? Which of the documents best supports the similarities?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include any particular reference so we do not know the documents you include as reference.

However, trying to help you we can comment on the following.

It is correct to say that the "Gilded Age" usually refers to business and worker interests in the period after Reconstruction to about 1900.

The aspect of the farmers’ experiences during this time that is similar is that they suffer many problems and tribulations during the Gilded Age, as was the case of the workers that labored in the big industries in the larger cities such as New York, Chicago, or Pittsburgh.

The American farmers were living in deep debt during the Gilded Age. They knew they had the risk of losing their properties and farms due to that debt. It was a time when the prices of the crops were down, making things worse. Another issue was the price railroads charged to transport their crops. It was too expensive for farmers.

During this Gilded Age, corruption actions in the government allowed the creation of monopolies as was the case of the Standard Oil Company owned by John D. Rockefeller or the US Steel Company owned by Andrew Carnegie.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can comment on the following.

How can Inaugural Addresses challenge Americans to shape personal goals and commitments to uphold their responsibilities as informed, actively engaged citizens of the United States?

Answer:

Citizens play an important role in the success or failure of a presidential administration. We say this because United States citizens have the civic obligation to participate in the decisions they want their legislators to take to solve community issues or problems affecting the American people.

US citizens need to commit themselves to actively participate in politics because the President, the members of the cabinet, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch can't do things alone, isolated, They need the participation and approval of the American people.

So as the US President took the Oath of Office to preserve and defend the US Constitution, citizens should also commit themselves to help the government in a "team effort."

How did the Aztecs label Teotihuacan?

Answers

Teotihuacan is an ancient Mesoamerican city located 30 miles (50 km) northeast of modern-day Mexico City. ... By the time the Aztecs found the city in the 1400s and named it Teotihuacan (meaning “the place where the gods were created”), the city had been abandoned for centuries.

Answer:

The name Teōtīhuacān was given by the Nahuatl-speaking Aztecs centuries after the fall of the city around 550 CE. The term has been glossed as "birthplace of the gods", or "place where gods were born", reflecting Nahua creation myths that were said to occur in Teotihuacan.

1.Did immigrants have a positive or negative impact on the economic development of the US? Explain your answer
in 5 sentences.

Answers

Answer:

Immigrants are at the forefront of innovation and ingenuity in the United States, accounting for a disproportionately high share of patent filings, science and technology graduates, and senior positions at top venture capital-funded firms. In addition, the presence of immigrants often creates opportunities for less-skilled native workers to become more specialized in their work, thereby increasing their productivity.  Immigration generally also improves the government’s fiscal situation, as many immigrants pay more in taxes over a lifetime than they consume in government services. However, native-born residents of states with large concentrations of less-educated immigrants may face larger tax burdens, as these immigrants pay less in taxes and are more likely to send children to public schools.

Because i read the question and i thought that, "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness—-That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great-Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World."

Communism was on the rise after the end of fascism and Stalin wanted to convert as many countries to communists as possible. The Warsaw Pact was also established to rival that of NATO and further integrate Eastern Europe into Communism. The Cold War had been a game of deception and bluffing so if the democratic side failed to keep up with Communists there would be Europeans leaning to be communist.

Answer:

Explanation:

The goals of the National Organization for Women (N.O.W.) are:

increasing women's participation in governmentimproving women's access to higher educationincreasing women's employment opportunities

The correct option is A, B, and D.

What is National Organization for Women known for?

The National Organization for Women was created on June 30, 1966, by a group of activists who wanted to put an end to sex discrimination. The organization is still regarded as a pillar of the women's rights movement today.

Raising wages for men to make them equal to those of women is not a goal of N.O.W., as it seeks to address the wage gap between men and women by advocating for equal pay for equal work. Persuading more women to become full-time workers is also not a stated goal of N.O.W., as it supports women's right to make their own choices about work and family responsibilities.

Thus, the ideal selection is options A, B, and D.
