Answer:

Literacy Tests

Explanation:

Because of the passing of the 15th Amendment by Congress which allowed for voting regardless of race, people of color, especially African - Americans poured into ballot locations to place their first votes. White Southerners didn't like that, so they turned to the state governments who decided to make all voters pass a literacy test before they could vote. As to avoid violating the Constitution by forcing only African - Americans to take it, it was given to all races, but most who oversaw the voting process allowed some whites to skip the tests and go right on to the ballot boxes.

This was a time when very few African - Americans had an education and could barely read, so the test was already difficult. To add injury to that, the questions were sometimes asked in another language or were questions only answered by someone of high degree. Even those who did get it right were sometimes lied to about their score and if they missed one question, they couldn't retake it and were sent out.

Answer:

Best type of government: ​Hamilton was a strong supporter of a powerful central or federal government. His belief was that a governmental power should be concentrated in the hands of those few men who had the talent and intelligence to govern properly for the good of all the people.

Alexander Hamilton (January 11, 1755 or 1757 – July 12, 1804) was an American statesman, ... Hamilton was born out of wedlock in Charlestown, Nevis. He was orphaned as a child and taken in by a prosperous merchant. When he reached ...

Children: Philip; Angelica‎; ‎Alexander‎; ‎James A...‎

Hamilton's economic plan for the nation included establishing a national bank like that in England to maintain public credit; consolidating the states' debts under the federal government; and enacting protective tariffs and government subsidies to encourage American manufactures.

View of the nature of human beings:​ Perhaps influenced by his difficult childhood, Hamilton held a generally negative view of humankind. He viewed people as generally ignorant, selfish, and untrustworthy. He felt that most people's actions were determined by their “passions” and selfinterests.
