Answer:

President Nixon's alleged abuse of authority in the Vietnam War led to the War Powers Resolution of 1973.

Explanation:

According to the United States Constitution, Congress has the right to declare war (Article I, paragraph 8) and the US President is Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces (Article II, paragraph 2). It is therefore unclear to what extent the President, as Commander-in-Chief, has the right to deploy armed forces in armed conflicts without the consent of Congress.

Background of the War Powers Resolution was the unclear constitutional situation in the use of armed forces in the Korean and Vietnam War. In the case of the Korean War, there was neither a formal declaration of war nor a congressional resolution approving the operation. After a Vietnamese attack on an American speedboat in the Gulf of Tonkin in 1964, Congress passed a resolution that supported the deployment of armed forces in Vietnam. It was not a formal declaration of war, but a publication as a law. The straw that broke the camel's back was the bombing of Cambodia and Laos ordered by President Nixon in 1970.

In 1973, the War Powers Resolution was passed by Congress with a two-thirds majority, following a veto by President Nixon. The goal was to ensure the future participation of Congress in the use of armed forces.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lee Harvey Oswald, a soon-to-be assassin, father of 2 children, and a very depressed human being, after hearing of John F. Kennedy's arrival in Dallas to try and win over the state's vote in the 1964 election, brought home a rifle one day and stashed it in his wife's best friend's garage.  His wife took one look at the gun and ordered him to leave.  Oswald did, but devised a plan to get back into the garage and take back his weapon.  After doing so, he planned the rest of his assassination attempt. Then, on November 22, 1963, Oswald took his place in a 6th story window of the Texas School Book Depository.  Around 12:30 pm, Oswald fired 4 shots over Dealey Plaza.  The motorcade that Kennedy was fatally wounded in raced to Parkland Hospital where Kennedy was pronounced dead at 1:00 pm.  Oswald fled the Book Depository and ran all around Dallas trying to avoid suspicion.  He was apprehended by police at a movie theater at 1:40 pm.  On November 24th, the assassin was assassinated by Jack Ruby as he was being transferred to a county jail.  He was rushed to Parkland Hospital, but for the respect of Kennedy, was not given the same hospital room.  Oswald could not survive due to massive amounts of blood loss and was pronounced dead at 1:07 pm.  He is now buried at Shannon Rose Hill Memorial Park, in Fort Worth, Texas.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Though thematic mapping had its origins in the 19th century, the technique is useful for understanding history in our own day. One of the fundamental problems of history is scale: how can historians move between understanding the past in terms of a single life and in the lives of millions; within a city and at the bounds of continents; over a period of days and over the span of centuries? Maps can't tell us everything, but they can help, especially interactive web maps that can zoom in and out, represent more than one subject, and be set in motion to show change over time.

To help show the big patterns of American slavery, I have created an interactive map of the spread of slavery. Where the Coast Survey map showed one measure, the interactive map shows the population of slaves, of free African Americans, of all free people, and of the entire United States, as well as each of those measure in terms of population density and the percentage of the total population. The map extends from the first Census in 1790 to the Census taken in 1860 on the eve of the Civil War. You can explore the map for yourself, but below I have created animations to highlight some of the major patterns.
