Answer:

Option D. The Equal Rights Amendment of 1972 to expand the civil rights of women was unsuccessful because not enough states ratified the amendment before the deadline expired in 1982.

Explanation:

The Equal Rights Amendment was approved by the U.S Senate on March 22nd, 1972 and was then sent to the states legislatures for ratification. The Amendment written by Alice Paul and Crystal Eastman was designed to guarantee equal legal rights for all American citizens regardless of their sex.

Congress originally set the deadline for the ratification for the 22nd of March of 1979, and during 1977 the amendment received the ratification from 35 States out of the 38 necessary for it to pass. But then a conservative backlash against the feminist movement that pushed for the amendment state to gain power and even with Congress setting a new deadline for the 30th of June, 1982, five States legislatures voted to revoke their previous ratifications and the amendment ultimately failed to receive the ratification.

What are the five main ideas of Wilson's 14 points? How well did Wilson's 14 points do in the Treaty of Versailles? What will be
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: Formation of the League of Nations, decolonization, removal of all economic barriers, the public conclusion of peace treaties, and the reduction of national armaments.

Explanation:

These were elementary fragments of the 14-point agreement. President Wilson and his associates sought to implement the above points. Yet, they were not successful in these endeavors. The countries that won the war were focused on collecting war reparations. So Wilson withdrew from the negotiations but was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts. Germany was declared the main culprit for the war. All the colonies were taken from Germany and had to pay huge war damages. Such conditions of peace will contribute to the strengthening of extreme nationalism in Germany and help Hitler come to power.

Some historians have seen Bryan as the political heir of Jefferson and Jackson, and McKinley as the political heir of Hamilton a
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Bryan very much idealized the individual American, particularly the farmer, as prime example of democracy, like Jefferson, and less elegantly, Jackson. All three were equally skeptical of the concept of masses of urban industrial workers, though for different reasons.

McKinley, coming from the Republicans, then the party of distinguished patrician interest and privilege, was much more quick to see small scale movements like the Populists as rabble rousing, relying instead upon the wise leadership of the well bred. in the same way, Hamilton actively disliked "the people' thinking them lazy, feckless and ignorant. He did not believe democracy need be all inclusive.
