Answer:

Grover Cleveland became the first Democrat to achieve the Presidency after the Civil War had ended. Elected twice, first in 1885 and later on in 1893, he became best known for his staunch belief in honesty, the fight against corruption, simplicity and the American way of fighting for things and not obtaining them from the government as a hand-over.

As such, he became known for his fight against corruption, his refusal to permit, or pursue any protectionist measures, use government money to favor any economic group, and much less allow Congressional acts that would favor such groups, under any circumstances.

This is why he barred efforts by Congress to favor economic groups, he did not permit to pass bills that would favor people who had not deserved such a thing, and moreover, bills that gave people things who had not fought for them. In this way, he upheld the ideal that Americans gained what they got, not received it freely. He also was the president known for angering railroad companies when he had them investigated for appropriation of Government lands, among many other actions that showed his principles, and his devotion to honesty, anti-corruption and the simple American way of life of fighting for the things that they wish to obtain.

Grover Cleveland's reputation differed from the rule of rest of the presidents as his penchant for honesty was an exception. Many government officials routinely accepted bribes and offered jobs to loyal party workers in what came to be known as spoils system as there was little regard for their qualifications.

How do you think the war will affect black citizens and soldiers in the us?
saw5 [17]

Answer:.

Explanation:

n 1778 the Continental Congress authorized funds and instructed General George Washington to send an expedition of the Continental Army into Iroquois country to “chastise,” or punish, “those of the Six Nations that were hostile to the United Stated.”  For more than two years, four of the Iroquois Confederacy’s Six Nations, specifically the Cayuga, Onondaga, Mohawk and Seneca, along with many of the tribes they considered their “dependents” and allies, had “taken up the hatchet” in the king’s favor.

Although led by their own war chiefs, the war parties were often accompanied by officers and rangers of the British Indian Department, who coordinated their efforts with the British military.  Other Crown forces were also operating against American settlements.  One was a corps of Loyalist volunteers and Mohawk warriors commanded by Captain Joseph Brant, or Thayendanegea, a Mohawk leading warrior and officer of the British Indian Department.  Another was Butler’s Rangers, a corps of Provincial regular light infantry raised specifically to “cooperate” with the allied warriors and fight according to the Indian “mode” of warfare.  It was commanded by long-time Indian Department officer John Butler.  Butler served concurrently as the Deputy Superintendent for the Six Nations with the Indian Department rank of lieutenant colonel, while at the same time holding a major’s commission in Provincial service as the commander of his ranger battalion.  Together they these forces conducted a campaign that terrorized American frontier settlements of New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

These attacks had several objectives.  First, they could divert the attention of Continental forces from the movements of their regular field armies.  Second, keeping the backcountry alarmed would interfere with the recruitment of potential volunteers from those districts, and hinder the ability of the militia to reinforce the hard-pressed Continentals.  This strategy also constituted a form of economic warfare.  By attacking productive agricultural communities, laying fields to waste and destroying harvested crops and livestock before they were taken to market could prove destructive to American commerce.  The British could also interfere with the American supply system by reducing the availability of provisions that could be purchased to stock military supply magazines, and force state governments to draw on the provisions already stored in them for the relief and subsistence of suffering inhabitants.  The plunder taken from the targeted American farms also presented British irregulars and their allied Indian war parties a source of supply when donations from “friends of the king” were insufficient.  There was also an element of psychological warfare in the British plans.  Under the threat of attack and devastation lest they swear allegiance to the king, the war on the frontier could weaken support for the cause of independence.  These “depredations” reached a peak in 1778, especially with the particularly brutal Wyoming and Cherry Valley Massacres, and all intelligence indicated the raids would continue into 1779.  Answering calls by the governors and congressional delegates from those states most affected, the Continental Army prepared to take the offensive.

Washington began developing a plan for a coordinated campaign to “scourge the Indians properly.” He envisioned an operation “at a season when their Corn is about half grown,” and proposed a two-pronged attack, the main effort advancing up the Susquehanna from the Wyoming Valley, and a supporting wing advancing from the Mohawk.  Both would be supported by a third expedition advancing up the Allegheny River and into Iroquois country from Fort Pitt as a diversion.  In his planning guidance, Washington specified the “only object should be that of driving off the Indians and destroying their Grain.”  Once accomplished, the expedition would return to the Main Army whether or not a major engagement was fought.
