Answer:

Whether the state was a slave state or a free state.

Explanation:

This was the main concern of the United States when it came to accepting a new state to the Union. This was because of the delicate balance of power that existed in the country. The strong opposition of slave states to free states (and viceversa) led to an equal number of slave and free states in the Union in order to maintain a balance of power. The admission of a new state threatened such a balance.

How did Ronald Reagan assemble his presidential campaign?

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign was a successful campaign for Reagan and his running mate George H. W. Bush's election and president and vice president of the United States. They defeated the incumbent Democratic President Jimmy Carter and Vice President Walter Mondale. Reagan, a Republican and former Governor of California announced his third presidential bid in a nationally televised speech from New York City. He campaigned extensively for the primaries after losing the Iowa caucus to Bush. In a republican debate in Nashua before the New Hampshire primary, when the moderator requested his microphone to be turned off, he furiously replied "I am paying for this microphone, Mr. Breen!". In the end, he won 44 states and 59.8% of the vote. He initially decided to nominate former President Gerald Ford as his running mate, but Ford wanted to be given such extended power as vice president (especially over the foreign policy) that their ticket would effectively amount to "co-presidency". As a result, negotiations to form a Reagan-Ford ticket ceased. Bush then selected former CIA director and George H. W. Bush as the vice presidential nominee.
