On January 1, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slaves in Confederate territory.
Lincoln believed he had constitutional authority to take such action as A. commander-in-chief of the military. B. head of his party. C. chief executive of the government. D. head of state.
The Emancipation Proclamation was issued mainly as a directive for the Union Army, so it was basically military in its character. It affected only slaves living in the rebel states of the Confederacy, not those living in slave-states that had remained loyal to the Union. But I think President Abraham Lincoln acted in different capacities at the same time, they can´t be unlinked. Besides being the US armed forces commander-in-chief, he was the chief executive of government.
The technology that was ignored prior to the attack on the
Pearl Harbor was the radar. The reason that it was ignored during the attack
because of the fact that it wasn’t new or evolved and that it is still
considered to be experimental.
