The correct answer is A) the President's attempts to restrict conservative influence.

<em>The social condition that was the main factor prompting President Eisenhower's speech was the President's attempts to restrict conservative influence.</em>

In that famous speech, United States President said people should not be afraid to learn and read books, as long the information contained in the books did not affect the decency of the American values. He said that the only form of censorship should be the one that censors information that attacks the values of America. In that speech, President Eisenhower expressed "how will we defeat Communism unless we know what it is, what it teaches, and why does it have such an appeal for men, why so many people are swearing allegiance to it."

The other options of the question were b) the churches attempt to promote religious tolerance, c) MLK attempts to increase literacy rates, and d) Senator McCarthy's attempts to limit free speech.

Explanation:

1- Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United States of America, occupying the position between 1801 and 1809. He is considered one of the Founding Fathers of the nation.

His eminence is given because he was the principal author of the Declaration of Independence of the United States of 1776. Jefferson was one of the most influential Founding Fathers, known for his promotion of the ideals of republicanism in the United States.

Jefferson was a leader and co-founder with James Madison of the Democratic-Republican Party, which dominated American politics for 25 years. In addition, he was the governor of Virginia during the War of Independence (1779-1781), the first secretary of state (1789-1793) and second vice president of the United States (1797-1801).

2- Alexander Hamilton was an economist, statesman, politician, writer, lawyer, and first secretary of the Treasury of the United States. He was one of the founding fathers of the United States. He was an influential interpreter and promoter of the Constitution of the United States, as well as the founder of the nation's financial system, the Federalist Party, the United States Coast Guard and The New York Post. As the first Secretary of the Treasury, Hamilton was the principal author of the economic policies of the George Washington administration.

3- James Madison was an American politician, political theorist, and the fourth president of the United States. He is considered one of the most influential of the "Founding Fathers of the United States" for his contribution to the drafting of the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights, to the extent that he is nicknamed "The Father of the Constitution". Breaking ties with Hamilton and the Federalist Party in 1791, he and Thomas Jefferson organized the Democratic-Republican Party, as a way to counteract the economic policies that Hamilton took as Secretary of the Treasury.

4- John Jay was an American politician and jurist, first president of the Supreme Court of the United States. He served as ambassador in Madrid and London. He negotiated the Jay Treaty with Great Britain in 1794.

5- Thomas Pinckney was an American soldier, politician and diplomat. In 1795 he was appointed extraordinary envoy to the Madrid court, to negotiate the 1795 Treaty of Madrid with Spain.

6- John Adams was an American statesman and founding father who served as first vice president (1789-1797) and second president of the United States (1797-1801). He was a lawyer, diplomat, political theorist and leader of the movement for the independence of the United States.

7- Edmond-Charles Genet was a French diplomat. As French Ambassador to the United States at the time of the French Revolution, he unleashed a diplomatic and political crisis in 1793 when he tried to influence US policy on neutrality in favor of France.

8- Edmund Randolph was an American lawyer and politician. He was the seventh governor of Virginia, the second secretary of state and the first attorney general of the United States.

How did Valley Forge showcase General George Washington’s leadership?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

In December 1777, 12,000 men of Washington's continental army marched in Valley Forge to escape the British who had just captured the capital of the revolutionary state, Philadelphia. What followed was a brutal winter that should have decimated the army but instead the opposite happened, they came out stronger. This, was as a result of Washington's leadership and the tactics of Friedrich Wilhelm Baron von Steuben.

But what made Washington so effective;

Inspirational/ Motivational

George Washington was an inspirational leader who throughout the war managed to inspire and motivate his troops and when this was massively needed in Valley Forge, he did not falter. His army had been defeated time and again and now were in a very precarious position yet they did not desert and break apart. This was because Washington was able to inspire them and just as he did in the battle at Monmouth, he did again here.

In the camp, Washington also initiated some recreational activities to keep the spirits of the men up such as theatre. At Valley Forge Washington had Addison’s play “Cato” acted.

Effective

As soon as they arrived at Valley Forge George Washington did not waste time in getting the camp organized. Within days it was reported that over 1,600 log huts had been built with Washington even giving exact measurements for the houses. Roads and trenches were also built such that the place looked like a small city.

Tactical

Even the choosing of Valley Forge as their base was a show of his leadership abilities because Washington proved his tactical mantle when he picked this location. It was chosen such that Philadelphia was close enough to watch the British and yet far enough that the British could not launch a surprise attack.

Willing to accept help

Some leaders are too proud to accept help but George Washington was not like that. When the Prussian officer Friedrich Wilhelm Baron von Steuben offered to transform the Americans into a solid and modern fighting force, he did not let pride get in his way but rather support the Prussian who then went on the make the men of the Continental army, a brilliant modern force.

Washington marched into Valley Forge with some people doubting his leadership acumen and even thinking of replacing him but marched out of Valley Forge at the head of an army that supported him and could not wait to beat the British under him. This on its own is perhaps the greatest showcase of his leadership.
