Do you think Abraham Lincoln needed to wait for the Union Army to win a battle before issuing the Emancipation Proclamation?

History

zhenek [66]3 years ago

Abraham Lincoln didn’t have to wait for a Union Victory to issue the emancipation proclamation, at least, there was no law that said he needed to. But Lincoln felt he needed to for political reasons. He waited so it didn’t look like he was issuing it out of desperation. Since those in the north viewed the war as bringing the union back together not as a war against slavery it was simpler for Lincoln to simply call it a war against secession not slavery. Especially since the south didn’t really want to end slavery. But he felt that slavery had pretty much ended after the war so it was okay for him to draft the emancipation proclamation, but since the union army wasn’t doing so well at that time he waited so the North and his government didn’t look weak. When he issued it he did it so it looked like the right thing to do to free slaves and not in order to win the war.

So, Mussolini knew that if he ruled a fascist government he would be able to do whatever he wanted to do essentially because there was no democracy.

The original purpose of the constitution does not specify providing for
solmaris [256]
A. solve the slavery issue.
The Constitution did not provide a clear solution to slavery. Nearly all of the founding fathers were against slavery, yet still owned slaves. They realized the economic and societal influence of slavery was too great. Founders such as John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, and Benjamin Franklin sought for the abolition of Slavery, but were overridden by the opposition.

The word Slavery was never mentioned in the Constitution to avoid controversy.

What was the Extradition Bill between China and Hong Kong?
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

A bill that allowed Hong Kong to detain and transfer people wanted in other countries with which it has no formal extradition agreements.

Explanation:

Extradition is the action of deporting a person convicted or accused of a crime.

The reason this finally came about was because a Hong Kong man killed his pregnant girlfriend in Taiwan and then returned to Hong Kong. He admitted he killed her but no charges could be given because it happened in another country and no laws about that were in place.

Hope that helps!
