EastWind [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

While it is true that the founding fathers acted not that long ago, and they did discuss how the country should be governed, and they were concerned about liberties and freedoms and responsibilities, that was not the important point that Lincoln was trying to make.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

b. For example

Explanation:

The expression <em>for example</em> is a subordinating transition which introduces an illustration or model of what is mentioned before. Thus, it provides evidence to support the previous statement. As a result, refusing to bring American friends home is an exemplification of immigrant children feeling ashamed of their foreign-born parents.

The phrase <em>on the other hand</em> is incorrect because it is a coordinating transition which introduces an opposing point.
