Initially, McClellan was trusted a military leader. He was able to successful train and equip the US military against the Confederacy. His planning proved to be detailed however, his perfectionist qualities made him slow to move and often without the aggression needed to fight the Confederacy. His plan was, theoretically, a good one in which troops would move east and come at Virginia from the water. This attack was aimed right at Richmond and if successful would have ended the war.

Answer:

He was receiving political pressure from his constituents.

Explanation:

The Anaconda Plan was created by Union General Winfield Scott, and came into use in 1862. It instituted a siege of the Confederacy by the Union, through a naval blockade, to control the Mississippi River and the Tennessee River, thereby fencing and dividing the Confederation.

Many people disapproved of this plan because, according to them, it was a very slow and passive plan, these people made political pressure on the president of the republic, causing Lincoln to abandon the Anaconda plan and adopt the McClellan strategy

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.
