MAVERICK [17]2 years ago

Rene Descartes is frequently considered the first modern philosopher. His first publication, Discourse on Method (1637), was the touchstone of the scientific method. A response to the lack of clarity he saw in the world of science, Discourse describes how scientific study should be prosecuted so as to achieve the utmost clarity, by using deductive reasoning to test hypotheses. Descartes explained that the test of an alleged truth is the clarity with which it may be apprehended, or proven. "I think, therefore I am," (cogito ergo sum) is Descartes' famous example of the most clearly apprehended truth. In effect, the evidence of thought proves the hypothesis of existence.

What is your opinion of the Electoral College? In one or two paragraphs, explain why
konstantin123 [22]
The 2020 presidential election has been a disaster for people who think the Electoral College is still a good idea. Joe Biden’s clear victory has been followed by attempts by the incumbent president to induce Republican legislators and other elected Republican officials in five states he lost to ignore the certified vote counts in their states and substitute their partisan preferences for the voters’ decision. Now Congress will formally receive the electoral votes, after a series of attempts to subvert the democratic process, all made possible by the Electoral College.

How did most people feel about senator clay when he suggested the Missouri compromise?
marin [14]

Answer:

Henry Clay Sr. was an American attorney and was Kentucky’s representative in both the Senate and House.

The Missouri compromise by Senator Clay involves admitting Maine to the United States as a free state while at the same time having Missouri as a slave state.

The Northerners and Southerners probably had the strong feeling that Clay was only working to solve the problems in ways in which he best knew how to.
