Answer: Robert M. LaFollette

Explanation: Robert Marion La Follette (June 14, 1855 – June 18, 1925) was an American lawyer and politician. He represented Wisconsin in both chambers of Congress and served as the 20th Governor of Wisconsin from 1901 to 1906. Upon taking office, La Follette called for an ambitious reform agenda, with his two top priorities being the implementation of primary elections and a reform of the state's tax system, both of which the state legislature enacted in 1902.

His tax reforms were especially notable as the new tax law, which required railroads to pay taxes based on property owned rather than profits, resulted in railroads paying nearly double the amount of taxes they had paid before the enactment of the law.

He was a candidate during the 1924 presidential elections but lost to the incumbent republican president, Calvin Coolidge.

B. Many countries have treated Jewish people poorly and forced them to leave.

Explanation:

The most major start to the Jewish people forced to leave is known as the "Great Diaspora", which saw to the Roman destruction of the Jewish state of Israel and <em>scattering them across the lands</em>. This would continue all the way until after World War II (in which case you will remember the Holocaust, which saw to Nazi Germany murdering thousands of Jews as well as other deplorables) when the UN as well as the USSR recognized the state of Israel, creating a national country for all Jews, in which many started to move back to their historical lands.
