Which of the following could be considered a long-term benefit of the Seventeenth Amendment?

increased communication

increased public political awareness

decreased funding of political machines

decreased influence of state legislatures

Answer:

increased public political awareness

Explanation:

The Seventeenth Amendment of the United States Constitution enabled people to vote directly for who will represent them in the Senate.

Prior to this Seventeenth Amendment, senators were appointed by the state legislatures and not elected.

As a result of this, it will allow more people to become politically aware and take decisions on who will represent them in the Senate.

Therefore, the long term benefit of the Seventeenth Amendment is increased public political awareness

How did the civil War start?
andrey2020 [161]

It started because Lincoln had won the 1860 election on a ticket of no new slave-states, so the South was doomed to be outvoted in Congress, which would pass laws that favoured the North at the expense of the South. So most of the slave-states broke away to form the Confederate States of America.

As for when it started, there was no actual declaration of war. The Confederacy could claim that it didn't want a war at all; it just wanted to defend its borders. Lincoln could not declare war on the Confederacy, because Congress did not recognise it as a sovereign nation.

The first shots were fired by the Confederates at the US Army garrison on the island of Fort Sumter in Charleston harbour on April 12th 1861, and Lincoln called for volunteer troops. The war was on.
