Answer:

Explanation:

It sure wasn't D. They were slaves, bought and sold.

It didn't free the existing slaves in the United States. It made it illegal to import more people to be slaves.

The choice is between A and C.

I think you should pick C which was factually true and exactly what happened. In other words, the law was circumvented.

The problem with A is that it they were let in directly at the request of Georgia and South Carolina.  These two states had very complex responses to the Jan 1, 1808 law. Their economies depended on as many slaves as they could get legally or not.

Herbert Hoover lost the 1932 presidential election to _____. Calvin Coolidge Harry Truman Warren Harding Franklin Roosevelt HELP
liq [111]

Correct answer:  FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT

Context:

Herbert Hoover began his service as President of the United States in 1929.   He was in office when the Great Depression began, and was blamed for the fact that the country struggled as it did.  The problems that led to the Depression had been building up for years before Hoover took office, but as the leader of the country when the troubles hit, he was the one who took the bulk of the criticism.  And Hoover really had no solutions to the problems.  In the 1932 presidential election, he was defeated by Franklin D. Roosevelt.  Roosevelt implemented "New Deal" policies to combat the Depression.
