The correct answer is A) Stephen Douglas's argument that people could keep slavery out of a territory by refusing to pass laws supporting it.

The Freeport Doctrine was Stephen Douglas's argument that people could keep slavery out of a territory by refusing to pass laws supporting it.

Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas were candidates for the Senate of the state of Illinois and had a series of debates that caught the attention of the people, During the second debate on August 27, 1858, in Freeport, Illinois, Douglass established his idea that people could keep slavery out of a territory by refusing to pass laws supporting it. He was defending the principle of Popular Sovereignty. In the debate, Lincoln was against the argument of Douglass and showed his opposition to slavery.

Compare and contrast the Watergate Scandal with the Iran-Contra Affair. Do you think both Presidents Reagan and Nixon were invol
cluponka [151]

The biggest difference between the Watergate Scandal and the Iran-Contra Affair is that the Watergate scandal was an internal politics problem, while the Iran-Contra Affair was a foreign politics problem.  Both scandals were exposed by the media.

In the Watergate scandal, president Nixon was directly  involved and exposed by the media as head of a group perpetrating illegal activities while it was never proved that President Reagan was directly related with the illegal aid to Contras and Iranian terrorist groups. So President Nixon was directly involved in the scandal.  

The Watergate scandal was worse in my opinion because it is more famous and it was the only presidential impeachment in U.S. history, and that undermined the public image of american democracy.
