poizon [28]

The correct answer is by becoming more active in addressing social issues than her predecessors

Eleanor married the rising politician, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, in 1905 and was completely involved in public service. When they arrived at the White House in 1933 as President and First Lady, she was already deeply involved in human rights and social justice issues. As he continued his work on behalf of all people, he defended equal rights for women, African Americans, workers in the era of depression, taking inspiration and attention to their causes. Courageously frank, she publicly supported Marian Anderson when in 1939 the black singer was denied use of the Washington Constitution Hall due to her race. Roosevelt ensured that Anderson would sing instead on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, creating a lasting and inspiring image of personal prowess and human rights.

Reagan pushed enormous amounts of money into building up the US military in order to:
aalyn [17]

Answer:

C. Outstrip the Soviet Union's military capacity and force change

Explanation:

Reagan supported this massive military buildup, in part, because he did not believe that the Soviet Union could afford to spend as much on defense as the United States could.

It would lead to the Soviet Union being economically bankrupt.

His position was that if the Soviets did not remove the RSD-10 missiles (without a concession from the US), America would simply introduce the Pershing II missiles for a stronger bargaining position, and both missiles would be eliminated. One of Reagan's proposals was the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI).

By the time Reagan stepped down from the helm, he had expanded the U.S. military budget to a staggering 43% increase over the total expenditure during the height of the Vietnam war. That meant the increase of tens of thousands of troops, more weapons and equipment, not to mention a beefed-up intelligence program.
