William Tucker, the first Black child born (recorded) in the American colonies, was baptized on January 3, 1624, in Jamestown, Virginia.
All these are true statements about President Dwight Eisenhower:
- He desegregated the military.
- He balanced the budget.
- He cut military spending.
- He warned of an arms race.
- He initiated a network of multi-lane interstate highways linking cities.
The "Fair Deal" programs had been the agenda of President Harry Truman, so that's the one answer not to include in the list.
I'd like to add a word about Eisenhower's warning concerning an all-consuming arms race. His words, from his farewell speech as president, famously spoke of the "military-industrial complex."
Here's a small section of that speech, delivered in 1961:
<em> The conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.</em>
<em> In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.</em>
<em> We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.</em>
The Senate will you mark me brainliest please
<span>It had a population that was right in the middle of all of the states then formed. This gave it the ability to see which concepts from the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan would best overall fit the new country's legislature. Connecticut wouldn't have been the most powerful state under either plan, so they didn't have a reason to wholeheartedly support either plan, and could give suggestions on how to please both sides.</span>
The industrial revolution and capitalism created jobs.
