Answer:

William "Boss" Tweed ran the Democratic party machine in 19th century New York City called Tammany Hall and was eventually convicted of corruption and embezzlement of government funds.

Tweed and his accomplices committed about $30 million to $200 million in fraud. It was only after a series of articles in the New York Times in 1871 that these practices came to an end. Tweed was indicted and in 1873 he was sentenced to an initial 12 years in prison. After serving one year, he was released but was immediately arrested again. A civil suit followed, but on December 4, 1875, Tweed managed to escape. He was eventually detained in Spain by the authorities there and extradited to the US where he would remain in prison until his death two years later.

nasty-shy [4]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

The Sagebrush Rebellion took place against the policies of the federal government during the Carter administration. What evidence was apparent in the presidential election of 1976 that indicated the rebellion had already started against Carter before he was inaugurated?

Answer:

Jimmy Carter won the states west of the Missouri River, except Hawaii and Texas, despite all the arguments presented by his rival Geral Ford, during the Presidential election of 1976.

At the beginning of the 1970s, the Sagebrush Rebellion started as a movement that demanded changes to the US federal government in that western people wanted to have more control in the use of the land.

American people who lived in thirteen states of the west demanded more state and local control of the lands, including total control over those territories. They thought privatization was the best solution for their demands. A big portion of these lands was located in the sagebrush steppe.

So we could say President Jimmy Carter inherited the conflict from past administrations that could not resolve the issue.

How do you rate Andrew Jackson as a president on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the best? Why?
WARRIOR [948]

As the President of the United States, I believe that President Andrew should be rated a  four.

<h3>Why I rated him 4</h3>

The reason for this rating is due to the fact that he was responsible for several pacts that helped to displace a lot of Native Indians from areas that were rightfully theirs.

I consider this act inhumane and believe that there would have been other ways of going about issues at the time.
