The speaker of the house is the most important and this is because this person presides over the proceedings in the house, administering the oath of office to Members, calling the House to order, preserving order and decorum within the House chamber and galleries, recognizing members to speak on the House floor, and making rulings about House procedures.

Explain why westward expansion created a clash between sectional interests in Missouri ?
Liono4ka [1.6K]
While the South utilized slavery to sustain its culture and grow cotton on plantations, the North prospered during the Industrial Revolution. Northern cities, the center of industry in the United States, became major metropolises due to an influx of immigrants. With this willing and cheap workforce, the North did not require a slave system. Although some northerners found the institution of slavery morally reprehensible, most did not believe in complete racial equality either. Slavery became even more divisive when it threatened to expand westward because non-slave holding white settlers did not want to compete with slaveholders in the new territories.

Whom did President Johnson appoint as the military commander of U.S. forces in Vietnam?
Verdich [7]

Answer:  General William Westmoreland

Details:  President Lyndon Johnson appointed General William Westmoreland to replace General Paul Harkins as head of the United States Military Assistance Command Vietnam (MACV) in June, 1964.  

The buildup of American military presence in Vietnam from 16,000 troops to over 500,000 troops occurred under Westmoreland's leadership, as well as President Johnson's initiative.  The ongoing stalemate in Vietnam, in spite of those enormous troop increases, brought about much anti-war sentiment back home in the United States.  Plenty of the dissatisfaction was aimed at General Westmoreland.  In 1968, President Johnson replaced Westmoreland with General Creighton Abrams as head of MACV.
