John F. Kennedy's inauguration speech in 1961 was one of the most important moments in US contemporary history. During this speech, Kennedy would say his famous words: "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."

It was the time of the Cold War against the Soviet Union but it was also a time of great economic prosperity for the country. As the middle class was growing strong and its overall wealth was improving throughout time. Americans responded positively, however, young Americans greatly disagreed in the involvement of the US in the Vietnam War, as they thought it was not the country's war.

The Federalists would agree with which of the following items in regard to the structure of the American government?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Group 2

Explanation:

Federalists were individuals who were in favor of a stronger federal (aka central) government. Federalists believed that the US needed a stronger federal government after the Articles of Confederation, America's first constitution,  were a failure. The Articles of Confederation gave almost no real power to the federal government. This resulted in several different problems.

This is why the federalists favored a stronger federal government that had the ability to tax, regulate trade between states, and negotiate deals with other nations.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

Truman supported containment, while MacArthur wanted to use nuclear weapons against the Soviets.

Explanation:

The main difference between MacArthur's and Truman's strategies in Korea was that "Truman supported containment, while MacArthur wanted to use nuclear weapons against the Soviets."

Truman believed that it will be more effective for the United States to use the policy of containment such that instead of going full-blown war against the Soviet Union, the war will be fought in such a way that it will not be direct but still be effective to contain the spread of communism.

On the other hand, MacArthur believed that the United States should be more aggressive and fight the Soviet Union with nuclear weapons and direct-fire combat.
