Democrats were mostly Southern farmers and laborers. Those that moved to the west or labored in the west found it harder to get jobs because of Chinese laborers who would work for a lower wage. The North were more industrialized so they didn’t have to worry as much about losing their jobs to Chinese laborers. Also, during this time, Southern Democrats were still more openly racist than Northern Republicans, so pure racism may have played a role as well. The key here is to point out that the evidence was made by Democrats, so Americans passed the Exclusion Act mostly by Democratic concerns and beliefs.

What do you think the greatest obstacle the allies had to overcome on D Day ?
e-lub [12.9K]

The general consensus is that the greatest obstacle to a successful invasion of D-Day was the problem posed by the English Channel.

An invasion across the English channel had only been done successfully once before in history, in 1066 when William the Conqueror led the Normans across to defeat Harold at the Battle of Hastings.

The English Channel provides a number of logistical and tactical problems in that it is difficult to cross, in some weather, but also that the opposing army is given time to prepare.
