Why was the indian removal act considered to be controvesial?
ivolga24 [154]
The Indian Removal Act took place in the first half of the 1800s under the presidencies of Andrew Jackson and Martin van Buren and directly led to the Trail of Tears, which resulted in the death of many members of tribes in the American South. It was considered controversial because the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the tribes' cause wherein the state of Georgia (which was actively seeking to evict the Indian inhabitants) was told it had no right to force their removal. Nevertheless, the president ordered their removal.

hope this helps! :)

How are state Supreme Court justices selected? What are some arguments both 'for' and 'against' each method?
Ronch [10]

Answer: Partisan, non-partisan and gubernatorial appointment

Explanation:

They are various ways supreme Court Justice are selected. Some of the ways are by partisan election, non-partisan election, or gubernatorial appointment. These varies according to the different states. The partisan method of election is a method where candidates are being voted for through ballot boxes with an indication of their political party. This is preferable among others as it gives the other judges the power to choose whom they want.
