Answer: c. Individuals can influence decisions on the ratification of constitutional amendments.
Explanation:
There was no scenario included however this should be the answer. The most popular way for an amendment to the Constitution to be ratified is by two-third of both chambers of Congress proposing an amendment which then has to be ratified by either three-fourths of state conventions or state legislatures.
In the spirit of American democracy, the State Government should act according to the will of the people which means that individuals will be able to influence decisions on the ratification of amendments.
Indeed the Twenty-first amendments proves the influence that individuals have. This Amendment was passed by State convention where delegates from states were chosen to represent the people. The delegates were only chosen based on whether they would vote yes or no to the amendment.
From the perspective of enslaved African Americans, slavery ended before the passage of the 13th Amendment because of the Emancipation Proclamation. It is important to note that the Emancipation Proclamation did not officially end slavery, but it did provide the impetus for subsequent legislation. The Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863 and granted freedom to all enslaved persons in states that were in rebellion against the Union. It also inspired enslaved African Americans to leave Southern plantations in large numbers and flee toward Union lines. Union troops were forced to make provisions for these enslaved people within their ranks.
President Lincoln would argue that the Emancipation Proclamation was simply a strategic move designed to destabilize the southern states. It did not apply to border states and it was null and void if the rebellious state returned to the Union. Moreover, because the southern states had seceded, they were no longer under the authority of the federal government, thus Lincoln had no authority over them
