History

Answer:

The correct answer is A. As a result of 20th century Supreme Court rulings, symbolic political speech gained substantial protections from government regulations.

Explanation:

Symbolic speech is a term that describes communicative situations in which the message transmitted is not literally expressed by the interlocutor. This type of speech is covered by the First Amendment implicitly.

Rulings such as Tinker v. Des Moines, United States v. O'Brien, Texas v. Johnson, and Cohen v. California expanded the protection of this type of discourse, including it within the protections of the First Amendment to freedom of expression.

For example, in the case Texas v. Johnson, it was established that the burning of an American flag involved a case of symbolic speech, so it should not be subject to prohibition by any type of law.

How did nuclear tensions influence johnson's win over republican candidate barry goldwater?
lions [1.4K]
Lyndon Johnson's campaign portrayed Barry Goldwater as a dangerous warmonger who would be too quick to make use of nuclear weapons.

The Johnson campaign created a television ad that is known as the "Daisy" ad.  A little girl is seen plucking the petals of a daisy and counting them -- up to nine.  Then an adult voice picks up at ten and starts a countdown from 10 downward, like the countdown for a missile launch.  The camera zooms to the girl's eye until just her eye and then her pupil fills the screen, and a nuclear mushroom cloud explosion is seen in the blackness.  Lyndon Johnson's voice is heard, saying, "<span>These are the stakes. To make a world in which all of God's children can live, or to go into the dark. We must either love each other, or we must die."

The ad aired only once but had a strong impact, and the footage was shown again and talked about on news programs.  It remains a controversial ad in US political history, but is considered a major factor in Johnson's landslide victory over Goldwater in 1964.</span>
