<span>General Ford,became VP after Spiro Agnew resigned (this includes the bribery scandal!!!) and became president after Watergate scandal forced Nixon in August 1974, he pardoned Nixon and pushed a very forceful conservative domestic policy, but was way more than a caretaker president when the respect for government was at an all-time low, thus being said, Spiro Agnew was only the beginning but it was the election of General Ford, and the pardon of Richard Nixon that really set America on edge! Hope this was helpful, have a great day!</span>

Answer:

2. Two prominent thinkers, one directly and one indirectly, played a pivotal role in the founding of the United States. These men were Thomas Paine and John Locke.

4. This view is supported by the fact that Montesquieu argued that if the executive power is not in the hands of a monarch, but is committed “to a certain number of persons selected from the legislative body, there would be an end then of liberty; by reason the two powers would be united, as the same persons would sometimes possess, and would be always able to possess, a share in both.” This would seem to be a reference to the ministerial system in England, and to the view that if the monarch were no longer head of the executive, or perhaps became a mere figurehead, with real power in the hands of his ministers, then the concentration of power would be a genuine danger.

5. Federalism is the system of government in which power is divided between a central government and regional governments; in the United States, both the national government and the state governments possess a large measure of sovereignty.

7. Under constitution-federal government gained broad powers to tax, regulate trade, control the currency, raise an army, and declare war.

8. States must take responsibility for areas such as: ownership of property. education of inhabitants. implementation of welfare and other benefits programs and distribution of aid.

How do people feel today about the boston masscare
andriy [413]

Answer:

The women of Boston felt disgusted and were angry about the crime of adultery committed by Hester Prynne.

Explanation:

In Chapter 2 of Scarlet Letter, when the crime of Hester Prynne was out, she was punished by the Puritanical Society for it. She wore an embroidered letter A (adultery).

Hester Prynne was convicted of the crime of adultery. Many women in the crowd, who were waiting outside the prison, were scorning Hester and gossiping that she should have been given much stricter punishment. Some church women thought only if they had a chance to handle the case of Hester, she would have been punished more severely.

"I’ll tell ye a piece of my mind. It would be greatly for the public behoof, if we women, being of mature age and church-members in good repute, should have the handling of such malefactresses as this Hester Prynne." (Quoted Text).

Some said that the letter should not be embroidered on her chest but on her forehead to shame her for life.

The ugliest woman of the crowd even suggested death punishment for Hester.

"This woman has brought shame upon us all, and ought to die. Is there not law for it?" (Quoted Text).

Why was it important for Europeans to find a direct trade route to Asia? European traders wanted to see the famed wealth and pow
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Safe passage into the Mongol Empire simplified trading for Europeans.

Explanation:

The main reason why Europeans wanted to find a direct trade route to Asia was because, with the fall of Constantinople, the Ottoman Turks had come to dominate the Silk Road. This was the land passage that Europe had used to trade with Asia. Under Turk control, the trade became more dangerous and difficult. Therefore, Europeans wanted to find a direct route so that they could avoid dealing with the new regime of the Ottoman Turks.

I hope this helps. I am sorry if you get this wrong.
