Answer 2

The correct answer is D) He was an intelligent and direct man.

The statement about Jefferson Davis that is NOT true is " He was an intelligent and direct man."

Jefferson Davis (1808-1880) was the President of the Confederate States during the Civil War years. He was elected President on February 1861. He had been a military officer during the Mexican War, then he became a Senator for the state of Mississippi and before being President of the Confederated States, US Secretary of War. He was not as smart an charismatic as Abraham Lincoln. He focused on the military but set aside the domestic problems of the southern states. He could not inspire people and protected unproductive and incompetent people
