The correct answer is B) Were designed to protect the rights of African Americans.
During Reconstruction, there were three critical constitutional amendments that were meant to help African Americans. These include:
1) 13th amendment- This constitutional amendment gets rid of slavery in the United States, officially freeing millions of slaves.
2) 14th amendment- This amendment states that all people born on US soil are US citizens. It also established the Equal protection clause to ensure that all citizens are treated equally under the law.
3) 15th amendment- This amendment said that a person cannot be stopped from voting based on their race, essentially giving African-American males the right to vote.

The requirements of a candidate who’s goal is to become president is:
•be a natural-born citizen of the United States
•be at least 35 years of age
•be a resident of the United States for at least 14 years
The pros of this are that the age requirement was set in to place because the Founding Fathers believe that a middle aged person has fully developed and matured. And that’s true (but not all the time). The requirements also do not eliminate any person of any race or religion or sexual preference from becoming president. Any one can become president!
The cons of this are that it kind of excludes immigrants who dream as serving as president as this requirement was put into place so as not to be influenced by foreign administration.

Those who lived through these technological changes, felt them to be much more than technological innovations. To them, these technologies seemed to erase the primeval boundaries of human experience, and to usher in a kind of Millennial era, a New Age, in which humankind had definitively broken its chains and was able, as it became proverbial to say, to “annihilate time and space.” Even the most important inventions of the 19th century that were not simply applications of steam or electrical power, such as the recording technologies of the photograph and the phonograph, contributed to this because they made the past available to the present and the present to the future.
The 1850 song, “Uncle Sam’s Farm,” written by Jesse Hutchinson, Jr., of the Hutchinson Family Singers, captured this sense that a unique historical rupture had occurred as a result of scientific and social progress:
