This is part of a letter written by a famous African American, Jackie Robinson.

Considering that he talks about having patience, or not having, and the mistreating of "us" as a group, we can discard anything about activists. Generally, and obviously, blacks were not defenders of segregation and the letter doesn't bring up anything directly about the president.

In fact, he is generally speaking about how his ethnic group has been badly treated throughout the years. So the answer is:

B. the discrimination and bigotry faced by African Americans throughout history in the United States.

Which country won the Vietnam War?​
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The U.S., technically

Explanation:

By every traditional measure, the United States “won” the Vietnam War. U.S. troops moved with impunity and held the field of battle after almost every engagement. Casualty rates were extremely lopsided in America's favor. Yet, by 1976, South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia were communist. Which means that Vietnam won, if you will.

So I guess the U.S. won every battle and still lost the war. The war ended with a cease-fire rather than a peace treaty.

Explain the principle of checks and balances as it relates to the power of the president. Provide one example to support your ex
Scrat [10]
Checks and Balances was designed to keep each branch from assuming too much power. Presidential power is checked and balanced in many ways. While he can veto various bills and keep them from becoming laws, he can be overridden by a 2/3 vote in both houses. SO if the Congress feels like the President is over stepping his bounds then they can in turn overrule him. The Supreme Court is also in the mix in that if they deem a law to be unconstitutional then they can rule it so and the law is no more. Presidents can influence Supreme Courts by whom they nominate for open positions (or in the case of one President, attempt to add more judges to the Court). However, after the nomination is made and the Senate approves and confirms them then they are free. The only way a Judge can be removed is they are found to be doing something illegal, deemed incompetent and unable to continue doing their job, resign, or die. This allows judges to "operate outside the realm of politics." The idea is that they can focus and not worry about politics and we can assume that decisions will be made free from political influences and bribery.

The birth of republican party
Sonja [21]
By February 1854, anti-slavery Whigs had begun meeting in the upper midwestern states to discuss the formation of a new party. One such meeting, in Wisconsin on March 20, 1854, is generally remembered as the founding meeting of the Republican Party. Hope I Helped! :)
