History

Answer:

He wanted to make concessions with the South

Explanation:

Buchanan was elected in an era that demanded strong executive leadership, but despite his political and diplomatic experience, he was ill equipped for the task. Buchanan failed as presi­dent not because he was weak, indecisive or in over his head, as he has been portrayed, but because he stubbornly adhered to a narrow, antiquated political philosophy that was out of touch with American society in the 1850s. He longed for the Jackson years of decades past, when Democrats North and South were unified, the anti-slavery movement was despised and sectional issues were settled by concessions to the South. He failed to comprehend the economic and cultural changes occurring in Northern society, didn’t understand the growing moral repugnance to slavery in the North nor the difference between those who wanted to prevent its spread and those who wanted to abolish it.

Use the term synagogue,sabbath, and kosher to describe traditional jewish practices.
expeople1 [14]
A synagogue is a place of Jewish worship, where Jews congregate and see their rabbi and practice the laws of the Torah. Sabbath, or Shabbat, is a weekly practice of rest that starts Friday at sundown and ends Saturday evening. During Shabbat, Jews light candles and observe the rest that G-d took on the seventh day of creating the world. 

Kosher is a form of religious dietary restriction that Jews practice. It includes not mixing meats and milk, and not eating animals that have split hooves.
