Yes, it is true that <span>Herbert Hoover was elected as the 31st president of the united states, and although he showed promise, he proved to be a relatively ineffectual President. </span>
There were many different reasons for the cold war, I'll only include a few.
Firstly the breakdown the the wartime alliance; Russia(soviet union) and America never got along but they both put aside their differences to fight against a common enemy, Hitler. Their hatred for Hitler kept the alliance going through the war however when Germany was defeated, they had no reason to stay friends.
They also have different ideological beliefs. America believed in capitalism, where there was a free economy with privately owned businesses and people making profit. Whereas the Ussr believed in communism, where the economy is controlled by the state, businesses are controlled by the state and a doctor would have the same wages as a cleaner- They wanted it to be fair for people.
Stalin was angry that Britain and America kept delaying D-Day, believing it was a plot to allow Germany to weaken the Soviet Union therefore there was tension.
Germany;
Stalin wanted huge reparations from Germany, and a ‘buffer’ of friendly states to protect the USSR from being invaded again.
Britain and the USA wanted to protect democracy, and help Germany to recover. They were worried that large areas of eastern Europe were falling under Soviet control.
It was difficult to come to an agreement.
There was resentment;
Britain and the USA could not forget that Stalin had signed the Nazi-Soviet Pact with Germany in 1939.
The Soviet Union could not forget that in 1918 Britain and the USA had tried to destroy the Russian Revolution
There are a few more I've missed out, but here's a good starting point.
Because the nazi's distroyed there homes and the shops the jews owned and it made it harder for them to make money and support their families.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.
The rebellious Southern states would be reintegrated, both politically and economically, into the union in the following way.
After the end of the American Civil War, in 1893, Lincoln created the "10 percent plan," which represented the beginning of the reunification process. It required that 10 percent of the southerners that voted in the election of 1890 to take an oath of allegiance to the Union. If that happened, then the southern states could create their own state constitutions. US President Abraham Lincoln also ordered Reconstruction for the Southern States and gave these former Confederated states leeway to do Reconstruction at their own pace.
