President Johnson envisioned an American society in which poverty and racial discrimination were eliminated. Along with this, he also discussed the need for the conservation of nature, help to the elderly/underprivileged, and the development of America's education system. All of these were admirable goals. However, it would be considered unrealistic to get rid of poverty and racial discrimination as a whole. This would involve a significant amount of government support and a complete cultural change of all American citizens.

Despite not being able to accomplish these goals, this program did receive significant praise because it improved the quality of life for millions of Americans. With programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, individuals who before could not afford medical treatment were now able to see doctors. This also resulted in the free/reduced lunch program which to this day still provides meals for millions of underprivileged students.

Cortés himself used the form "Hernando" or "Fernando" for his first name, as seen in his signature and the title of an early portrait. William Hickling Prescott's Conquest of Mexico(1843) also refers to him as Hernando Cortés. At some point writers began using the shortened form of "Hernán" more generally.

how was supporting the nomination of william jennings bryan as a democract both a positive and negative development for the peop
frozen [14]

Supporting the nomination of William Jennings Bryan as a democrat was both a positive and negative development for the People’s Party.

<u>Explanation:</u>

People’s party was found by the leaders of the Populist Movement which worked to safeguard the rights of farmers.  It was formed in 1891 and in the presidential elections of 1892 its candidate James B Weaver got 8.5% votes. This attracted political attention towards the people’s party.

Democrats were impressed by the ideals and support gained by the People’s party they succeeded in gaining the support of People’s party in 1896 presidential elections when William Jennings Bryan was the Democrat candidate. Getting folded up to the Democratic Party increased the political exposure of People’s party.

The fusion wasn’t a healthy decision considering the scenario in the south. Approaches of Democrats were completely racist which meant there was a conflict between ideologies between the two parties. The influence of People’s Party was over by 1908.
