For the answer to the question above, Truman’s policy was more defensive than offensive.  This can be seen in the Marshall Plan where he used economic to rebuild war-torn as an incentive to promote democracy.  Though he would not use military force, He vowed to support countries against communism and this was seen in the establishment of NATO as a deterrent to Russian expansion.

Summarize Lincoln's 3 three reasons for the Ten Percent Plan.
Nataly [62]
Ten-Percent Plan,which specified that a southern state could be readmitted into the Union once 10 percent of its voters (from the voter rolls for the election of 1860) swore an Oath Of Allegiance to the Union. Voters could then elect delegates to draft revised state constitutions and establish new state governments. All southerners except for high-ranking Confederate army officers and government officials would be granted a full pardon. Lincoln guaranteed southerners that he would protect their private property, though not their slaves. Most moderate Republicans in Congress supported the president’s proposal for Reconstruction because they wanted to bring a quick end to the war.

In many ways, the Ten-Percent Plan was more of a political maneuver than a plan for Reconstruction. Lincoln wanted to end the war quickly. He feared that a protracted war would lose public support and that the North and South would never be reunited if the fighting did not stop quickly. His fears were justified: by late 1863, a large number of Democrats were clamoring for a truce and peaceful resolution. Lincoln’s Ten-Percent Plan was thus lenient—an attempt to entice the South to surrender.

Black_prince [1.1K]

The correct answer is "he obstructed the enforcement of congressional Reconstruction policies that he felt were too harsh."

President Andrew Johnson was impeached in 1868 after he removed Secretary of War Edwin Stanton from office without first getting approval from the US Senate. President Johnson was impeached because he had violated the Tenure of Office Act.

The main reason that Andrew Jackson was not convicted after he was impeached was that some Republicans did not want to upset the balance of government.

On February 24, 1868, Andrew Jhonson was impeached by Congress. He was the first United States President to be impeached. Indeed, the House of Representatives voted eleven articles of impeachment, and the decision was taken. On March 13, the impeachment trial began in the Senate. But the Senate did not achieve the two-thirds majority needed to convict Andrew Jackson.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

In his August 1963 speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial delivered to 250,000 black and white Americans, Martin Luther King, Jr., declared: "I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal".

In this speech, King laid out his dreams and visions of a future in the United States where everyone, regardless of race, would be able to live together in harmony as equal citizens. It was held in front of more than 200,000 people, and is considered to be one of the most significant speeches ever.
