Yes, Yes, No, Yes, No. These are the answers and explanations.

>>Samuel Adams founded the Committees of Correspondence.

"Adams called for independence, and the Congress agreed to boycott British goods until the repeal of the Intolerable Acts... Adams returned to the Continental Congress, where he and cousin John continued to call for independence." (history.com) Sorry, the evidence is not good but I checked this answer and it was correct.

>>Thomas Paine did write the pamphlet 'Common Sense'.

"Although many Americans who still had doubts about the war, a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine called 'Common Sense' increased support for independence...  His 'Common Sense' pamphlet argued logically and sensibly for American independence from Britain." (learning.k12.com)

>>Patrick Henry did not write the D.O.I . This answer is false.

"The delegates agreed to give a committee permission to draft a Declaration of Independence. On this committee were Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Robert Livingston, and Roger Sherman. Jefferson was chosen as the person to actually draft, or write, the document." (learning.k12.com)

>>Benjamin Franklin did publish essays promoting American independence. Even though this answer is correct, I didn't see any evidence for it, so when I did the test, it was kind of like a guessing game >_<

>>Thomas Jefferson did not say "give me liberty or give me death", Patrick Henry did. This answer is false.

"'Give me liberty, or give me death!' is a quotation attributed to Patrick Henry from a speech he made to the Second Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775, at St. John's Church in Richmond, Virginia." (wikipedia.org)

I checked these answers and they were correct. ^_^ Hope this helps!

1.. Modern horse-race coverage helps focus public
Rina8888 [55]

The correct answer is B, presidential primaries. Let's think about why is that: what is the difference between B and the other options?

When we are talking about congressional legislative actions, public policy debates, and Supreme Court rulings, we can hardly have a real conversation with only two possible answers. Public debate is necessarily complex and multilayered; and the main goal isn't one thing or another to win, most of the times, but to achieve the best possible result.

So the press takes advantage of presidential primaries, when besides public debate also individual figures are central and covers it like a horse race. Coverage then gets less political, since it doesn't have much space for healthy and serious debates, and becomes only about the disputing figures.

kari74 [83]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Were political machines during the gilded age bad for their communities, or were they necessary evil and a way for ordinary people to improve their lot in life?

I consider that somewhat they benefited in some aspects of the communities but the issue was that political machines were really interested in their own agendas and political influence. These political machines used the benefit of the community as an excuse or as a facade to cover their real intentions.

For instance, let's remember the case of the political machine known as Tammany Hall that gained so much power in New York City and exerted its power and control over politicians.
