Patrick Henry's most important objections to the new constitution was that it would make the federal government strong and thus pose a threat of tyranny. Henry dreaded a strong central government and even refused to take up positions in the federal government. As a result of his view, he actively opposed the ratification of the constitution.

Why did President Lincoln feel the need to pass the 13th Amendment, when the Emancipation Proclamation was already in place?

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Question 4:

Lincoln recognized that the Emancipation Proclamation would have to be followed by a constitutional amendment in order to guarantee the abolishment of slavery. The 13th amendment was passed at the end of the Civil War before the Southern states had been restored to the Union and should have easily passed the Congress. I'm pretty sure the answer is C. (Sorry if you get it wrong, but I'm pretty sure C is correct.)

Question 5:

The major provision of the 14th amendment was to grant citizenship to “All persons born or naturalized in the United States,” thereby granting citizenship to former slaves. The answer is A.

Question 6:

The Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. They were added in the five years after the Civil War. Their purpose was to abolish slavery and give civil and voting rights to former male slaves. The amendments are sometimes called the Civil War Amendments. Pretty sure the answer is C.

Question 7:

The Fifteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits the federal government and each state from denying a citizen the right to vote based on that citizen's "race, color, or previous condition of servitude." I think the answer is C.

Question 8:

The 14th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified on July 9, 1868, and granted citizenship to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which included former slaves recently freed. The answer is C.

Question 9:

The Fourteenth Amendment prohibits the states from depriving “any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” The Answer is C.

Question 10:

The Equal Protection Clause is a clause from the text of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The answer is D.

I think all those answers are correct, I'm so sorry if they're not!!

The underground testing of nuclear weapons was prohibited under the terms of the 1963 Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.

Delicious77 [7]

Well, technically, this is false. The Test Ban Treaty of 1963 prohibited nuclear weapons testing in the atmosphere, in outer space, and under water, but it didn't ban testing underground. However, it does prohibit nuclear explosions underground if they cause "radioactive debris" and contaminate the living surroundings.
