Question

If you were a member of Congress how would you have treated the South after the Civil War? Would you have had different plans like the Presidential, Congressional, and Milltiary Plans? In 1-2 paragraphs describe to me what you would have done differently and why, and then compare your plan to one of the three plans.
NEED HELP ON THIS ASAP!!!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!! WORTH 20 POINTS I THINK!!

Answer 1

I would most possibly do the same thing, or take the south back to US as brothers, but I might also add a little punishment. The punishment would be limited import for a period of years (1, or 5). I would also not allow them to vote or participate in any political meeting, congressional decisions, etc.

Hope this helps, you might have a different opinion however, but as I think, it would be better to punish them for
1. Not obeying the rules (still having slavery)
2. Electing a secondary president.
3. Helping the war happen.
4. Trying to become independent from the rest of US.
