The power to declare war
Congress declares war.
Hope this helps:)
In short, Germany was close to being defeated, and America wanted to be part of the post war carve up (when territory was divided). The US was supplying war materials to the Allies and could not do so while maintaining complete neutrality. There was also the sinking of the British ship Lusitania which angered the US. Also, the Zimmerman telegram.
It seems that forty or fifty years ago the idea of what was a ‘good citizen’ was clearer than today.
‘Good citizens” were individuals who did not pursue only their own interest, but also felt responsible for the fate of the whole society. They followed public affairs, were involved in political campaigns, voted, participated in voluntary organizations and were law-abiding.
Today few people have confidence in the political system.
In your opinion, then, what does it mean to be a ‘good citizen’ these days? Is this concept already part of the past?
It was the white people vs the black people. That was the main reason
