History

Paha777 [63]3 years ago
3 0
 <span>As in any era where reforms happen, there are winners, and losers. 

The rich, Big Business benefit the most, while the middle and lower classes benefit the least 
The unions benefit in that more people are wont to join for the protection they offer, and for a fair deal. 
Consumers may benefit in the short term, however as we see, prices always go up, and quality always go down. 

Women, Children, and the African Americans are the least groups to benefit, or were many years ago, as they had no real champions for their cause.
Hope this helps!!!!</span>

Simora [160]

After the assassination of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865, Vice President Andrew Johnson became President. At first, he appeared to be a Radical however he clashed with them, involving himself in a bitter struggle with Radical Republicans.

<em>Some of the main reasons which caused the political conflict between the radical republicans and President Johnson were the Civil Rights Act</em>, which was the first United States federal law to define citizenship and affirm that all citizens are equally protected by the law, and <em>the four Reconstruction Acts</em>, through which it was required to the Southern States to be readmitted to the Union.

Since Republican Radicals had full control of Congress they were able to override 15 of the 21 bills passed by Congress which Johnson had vetoed, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and four Reconstruction Acts, described above.

How did Republican candidates woo the formerly faithful Democratic constituency of ethnic white Americans into the GOP?
storchak [24]
They did it by appealing to their racism. The democrats in the south were the ones who were the confederacy in the civil war and after that they had to accept African-Americans even though they didn't want to. Conservative republicans used this to get them to vote for them because the racist democrats believed that northern democrats abandoned them.
