Why did douglas's "popular sovereignty" approach to the slavery question prove to be unworkable in kansas and elsewhere?

History

Answer:  It led to unrest and violence between pro-slavery and anti-slavery groups.

Context/details:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act enacted by Congress in 1854. It granted popular sovereignty to the people in the Kansas and Nebraska territories, letting them decide whether they'd allow slavery.  In essence, this made the Kansas-Nebraska act a repeal of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had said there would be no slavery north of latitude 36°30´ except for Missouri.

After the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into Kansas to try to sway the outcome of the issue, and violence between the two sides occurred.  The term "bleeding Kansas" was used because of the bloodshed.

natulia [17]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

John promised to pay Bill if he painted the garage by Friday but John called him to cancel the deal before he began to do the task and he didn't even buy the supplies. So, John won't be obligated to pay Bill $100 if he buys the supplies and paints John's garage because John let him know that the deal was off before he had bought anything. According to that, the statement is false.
