The main system used by political parties to nominate the candidates in the modern political system of the US country is the primary system of elections.

Option  A is the correct answer.

<h3>What is a political party?</h3>

A political party is elected by the maximum votes given by the citizens of the country at the time of elections.

What factor led to Nixon’s re-election in 1972
Paladinen [302]

I would answer:  Nixon's appeal to the "Silent Majority" in America gave him sufficient support to win re-election in 1972.

Context/detail:

Richard Nixon sought to appeal to what he called "The Silent Majority" of American citizens -- the everyday, middle-class, working folks who were not part of the anti-war protests that had been happening in the country.  On November 3, 1969, during his first year in office, President Nixon called on that "silent majority" in a major radio and television address.  In response to continuing war protests, Nixon urged solidarity in support of the war effort in Vietnam War effort, saying that the United States was “going to keep our commitment in Vietnam.”  

Nixon's efforts in 1969 did not stop the war protests.  (The folks protesting weren't part of his "Silent Majority" demographic).  However, the 1972 election tended to vindicate Nixon and his appeal to average working-class voters.  He won a landslide victory, carrying 49 of 50 states.

Other factors that worked in Nixon's favor were the pursuance of détente with the Soviet Union and his opening of relations with the People's Republic of China, which began with his trip there in February, 1972.

How was human history changed by Columbus stepping on soil in the Americas?
kupik [55]

Explanation:

Columbus lands in South America

Explorer Christopher Columbus sets foot on the American mainland for the first time, at the Paria Peninsula in present-day Venezuela. Thinking it an island, he christened it Isla Santa and claimed it for Spain.

Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy, in 1451. Little is known of his early life, but he worked as a seaman and then a sailing entrepreneur. He became obsessed with the possibility of pioneering a western sea route to Cathay (China), India, and the fabled gold and spice islands of Asia. At the time, Europeans knew no direct sea route to southern Asia, and the route via Egypt and the Red Sea was closed to Europeans by the Ottoman Empire, as were many land routes. Contrary to popular legend, educated Europeans of Columbus’ day did believe that the world was round, as argued by St. Isidore in the seventh century. However, Columbus, and most others, underestimated the world’s size, calculating that East Asia must lie approximately where North America sits on the globe (they did not yet know that the Pacific Ocean existed).
