Speaker 1 <span>would most likely support the government established by the Articles of Confederation</span>
The 14th amendment of the United States Constitution was ratified in 1868 and grants the guarantee to all citizens of an equal protection of the laws. This amendment grants citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the US, also the former slaves.
Question: How did the 14th Amendment help the process of granting former slaves citizenship and the rights that had been previously denied to them?
Answer: The 14th Amendment defined a citizen as a person born or naturalized in the United States, regardless of color.
Answer: The theme that this sentence suggests is that people are different and often disagree with each other.
Explanation:
This is an excerpt from a speech that Patrick Henry delivered to the Second Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775, at St. John's Church in Richmond. In the speech, he suggests that Virginians should support the Revolutionary War.
The lines above are from the very beginning of Henry's speech. In these lines, Henry argues that people are different and have different opinions. He hopes that man who disagree with him will not be offended by the ideas he is about to present in his speech. He does not attack those who do not support him, as it is not the right way to persuade people to agree with him. Quite the opposite: Henry shows respect for those people, and argues that good people often disagree.
Answer:
The Iran-Contra affair was one of the biggest political scandals of American politics in the 1980s. It erupted in November 1986 when it came to light that then-President Ronald Reagan and several leading members of his administration were involved in the clandestine sale of arms to Iran, which was then subject to an arms embargo. Their plan was to improve relations with Iran, which was to lead to the release of six American hostages held by the Lebanese group Hezbollah. The plan soon turned into a hostage trade, and part of the proceeds were to be diverted to fund the Contras group, an anti-communist guerrilla in Nicaragua. Although Reagan was a supporter of the Contra, due to the mystery that still surrounds the case, there is currently no solid evidence that he approved the funding.
Reagan admitted in a televised address that the sale of weapons had taken place, denying the hostage trade. Several commissions of inquiry were set up, but found no direct connection, as Reagan's aides destroyed or concealed a large number of documents.
