Answer:

A). Lincoln was anti-slavery and Florida voters feared he would start a war to prevent the practice of owning enslaved persons.

Explanation:

The key reason for Florida considering Lincoln(who was the president at the time) as a threat was '<u>Lincoln's anti-slavery attitude which made the voters of Florida fear that he might move to the extent of beginning a battle for the rights of slaved and against the ones who own them</u>.' He even says, 'if slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong.' Since Lincoln believed in leading the nation with morality, ethics, and constitution, this made Florida to think twice that his abolitionist attitude may pose a threat to them. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

I would pick lion

Explanation:

I would have chosen lion as our nation's symbol. Lion can represent multitude of things such as strength, justice, fearlessness, and power! All of these were part of the US when colonies first united and fought against british. Lion also resembles a great military might and US has this even to this day and had this during old times as well as evident by our win against the notorious british regime.

Having a lioness to be part of country's symbol also resembles being caretakers as a great mother providing protection. US has mostly been a safe refuge for people seeking the protection of its warmth and security. The colonists came to US mainland (although not orginally called US) for better life thus lioness or lion are great symbols.
