Did Harding show good leadership of the country
Fed [463]
Warren Gamaliel Harding (November 2, 1865 – August 2, 1923) was the 29th president of the United States from 1921 until his death in 1923. A member of the Republican Party, he was one of the most popular U.S. presidents to that point. ... He is often rated as one of the worst presidents in historical rankings.


The Teapot Dome scandal was a bribery scandal involving the administration of United States President Warren G. Harding from 1921 to 1923. Harding administration passed the Emergency Tariff Act in the year 1921. ... The Emergency Tariff of 1921, increased rates on wheat, sugar, meat, wool and other agricultural products brought into the United States from foreign nations.


Most historians rank Harding as the worst of all American Presidents. Recently, some revisionists see him as an important transitional figure whose easy-going ways helped bridge the gap between Wilsonian idealism and the business prosperity of the Coolidge and Hoover years. Harding is also given some credit for his progressive views on race and civil rights.

Neither a deep thinker, nor a decisive President, Harding failed, in most opinions, to impact the nation simply because he saw the role of President as largely ceremonial. He saw himself as neither a caretaker nor as a leader. He just avoided issues whenever possible.

Unlike other modern Presidents, such as Ronald Reagan, who possessed conventional minds and who thought simply, Harding never understood where he wanted to take the nation. Nor could he communicate his message effectively, because he had none to communicate. He spoke about a "return to normalcy," but he had no idea what this slogan meant. Lacking the moral compass of a Reagan, Harding had no guide to follow. He was lucky to have had a few good men in his cabinet who generally ran fiscal and foreign affairs well.

In the end, it was not his corrupt friends that tarnished his legacy and undermined his historical impact. Rather, it was his own lack of vision and his poor sense of priorities that positioned him so low in the ranking of U.S. Presidents. Then, too, it was Harding's sad fate to have followed in office the most visionary of all our Presidents, Woodrow Wilson, the man whom historians generally rank among the top five or six Presidents in the nation's history.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

HOPE IT HELPS HAVE A GOOD DAY

Explanation:

The Antebellum Cottonocracy was known as the period of the "Cotton Boom" in the south. This good's value was increasing as the demand for it overseas started to grow. This period also coincided with "The Gilded Age", which was a period of great economic growth and many demographic changes, as the United States received a great number of immigrants coming majorly from Europe. Cotton businessmen had great influence over the southern state as their economic power rose. Slavery continued to be a key factor in the growth of the industry, as enslaved people would be used as workforce along with technological developments in order to increase the production.

How was life for blacks in South Africa impacted by Apartheid?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

From 1948 through the 1990s, a single word dominated life in South Africa. Apartheid—Afrikaans for “apartness”—kept the country’s majority black population under the thumb of a small white minority. It would take decades of struggle to stop the policy, which affected every facet of life in a country locked in centuries-old patterns of discrimination and racism. The segregation began in 1948 after the National Party came to power. The nationalist political party instituted policies of white supremacy, which empowered white South Africans who descended from both Dutch and British settlers in South Africa while further disenfranchising black Africans.
