Answer:
Right choice: The president of the United States of America.
Explanation:
After each US presidential election, state electors gather in the Electoral College and vote for the candidate who won most votes in their state. 270 electoral votes are necessary to be proclaimed the winner, a president-elect.
Both revolutions started rather moderately, with people demanding more representation in government. Neither gained the full support of everyone in the respective nations either, as evidenced by Loyalists in the US and counterrevolutions in areas like the Vendee in France. In France, the revolution became more radical and ideological, taking Enlightenment ideals and rationalism to the extreme. The revolution in France also led to the dictatorship of Napoleon and the restoration is Bourbon monarchs, so ultimately a return to the status quo, while the American Revolution was successful in gaining American independence. Furthermore, the French Revolution was fought in France while the American Revolution was fought in the colonies of England and never sought to completely depose George III, just remove his control of the colonies.
Dubois concludes that the cause of economic progress is possession of political power, civil rights and higher education. This can be seen from the second to the last sentence of the passage, where it is written 'Is it possible and probable that nine millions of men can make effective progress in economic lines, if they are deprived of political rights, made a servile caste and allowed only the most meager chance for developing their exceptional men'.
leichschaltung is the German term applied to the Nazification of German society following the Nazi seizure of power in 1933. Once Hitler became chancellor, he and the Nazi Party sought to “coordinate” all political, social, and cultural institutions with the Nazi state. This “coordination” was done in the name of national unity. However, it allowed the Nazi Party to extend its power by creating a single party state. Everything was subject to coordination: local government, professional organizations, social clubs, leisure activities—even those for children.
The state enforced coordination from the top-down. At the same time, many Germans responded with a bottom-up coordination of their own. This was known as Selbstgleichschaltung. Even Hitler was surprised with the speed and ease of remaking Germany. He noted “everything is going much faster than we ever dared to hope.”1
