This period of time was called the first “Civil Rights” movement for African Americans. Jim Crow laws were created during this period of time to stop blacks from voting and segregated them from whites. This period didn’t come with much success for blacks, as the only thing passed prior to this movement was the 13th-15th Amendments. This movement ended in 1896, with the Plessy v. Ferguson case, in which “Separate but equal” was ruled constitutional.
The Phoenicians were among one of the best traders of their time and owed much of their prosperity to trade.

So, Bush believed that all military missions should be based on U.S. strategic interests and should have clear objectives and exit strategies. He does not want to over commit the armed forces and would like to see allies shoulder more responsibility in terms of regional conflicts. Bush believes that U.S. regional priorities consist of Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and the Far East, and he strongly supports maintaining U.S. presence in NATO. He feels that the U.S. should be prepared for military intervention if necessary, but that a strong military will act as a deterrent to security threats.
Gore assailed Bush's proposal to withdraw U.S. forces from the Balkans saying it would be "a damaging blow to NATO" and would jeopardize other U.S. alliances. He has defined six criteria for deciding whether to deploy the military: (1) Is the mission in U.S. national interests? (2) Is military force the only way to solve the conflict? (3) Have all other options been exhausted? (4) Will force solve the problem? (5) Do we have the support of allies? (6) Is the cost of the operation proportionate to the objective? Gore's policy of "forward engagement" calls for early diplomatic intervention to prevent the need for future military deployment.
