<u><em>After World War II</em></u>, the United States and the Soviet Union found themselves on opposite sides of a "<u>Cold War</u>," <em><u>and the threat posed by communists in the United States became known as the Red Fear</u></em>.

<u><em>For this reason, the government of the United States responded by creating the Committee of Un-American Activities of the House of Representatives,</em></u> (HUAC).

<u><em>The HUAC often pressured witnesses</em></u> to give names and other information that could lead to the arrest of communists and supporters of communists.

<u>The committee members rated the witnesses as</u> "<u>red</u>" <u>if they refused to comply or hesitated to answer the committee's questions</u>.

What language was used by scholars and members of the clergy during the middle ages
FromTheMoon [43]
This would most probably be Latin: It was the language at the Universities during this time, and also in the church.

In fact, some remnants of this can still be found. In some universities some very formal documents can still be written in Latin and some church celebrations can still be led in Latin in some churches.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The appointed judge does not run against an opponent.                                

Explanation:

It is a process which takes place at regular intervals where a judge in practice is subjected to a referendum whereby the voters are asked to vote whether the judge should continue for a second term or should be removed form the office.
