Answer:
Johnson Was Impeached, But Not Convicted
<em>The Chinese Exclusion Act</em>
Explanation:
The Chinese Exclusion Act was passed in 1882 and was the ban of Chinese laborers from immigrating into the United States. President Chester A. Arthur signed this law and approved it.
Many people during this time were prejudice against Chinese immigrants. Most of this prejudice and racism came from the California Gold Rush, as many Chinese immigrants went to California during this time for work trying to find gold. Many white Americans thought that the Chinese were trying to take their wages and jobs and were not happy about it whatsoever.
This lead to a lot of hate to Chinese immigrants from white Americans and eventually got into the hands of higher authorities such as President Chester A. Arthur. The ban upon Chinese laborers was the first immigration law that banned a race or ethnic group to this extent.
In the Presidential Election of 1860, Abraham Lincoln defeated all of the following men except "John Bell", since although Bell was indeed a politician he was not involved in this particular race.
Answer:
The Preamble of the U.S. Constitution—the document’s famous first fifty-two words— introduces everything that is to follow in the Constitution’s seven articles and twenty-seven amendments. It proclaims who is adopting this Constitution: “We the People of the United States.” It describes why it is being adopted—the purposes behind the enactment of America’s charter of government. And it describes what is being adopted: “this Constitution”—a single authoritative written text to serve as fundamental law of the land. Written constitutionalism was a distinctively American innovation, and one that the framing generation considered the new nation’s greatest contribution to the science of government.
