Which two sentences support Abraham Lincolns claim that his presidency was not a threat to the Southern states?

English

Stels [109]3 years ago

Apprehension seems to exist among the people of the Southern States that by the accession of a Republican Administration their property and their peace and personal security are to be endangered.There has never been any reasonable cause for such apprehension.Indeed, the most ample evidence to the contrary has all the while existed and been open to their inspection. It is found in nearly all the published speeches of him who now addresses you. I do but quote from one of those speeches when I declare that–

I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.

This question is actually a matter of opinion. Some would say he shows strength by knowing he has to sacrifice six of his men when he has already lost so many. They say it shows he's a strong character and a determined leader. That he's willing to sacrifice anything for his cause. That's a very strong character trait. Some, however, would say it shows he's weak. Not only did he know it wouldn't be him who died, he also didn't tell his remaining men. He let six of them die. He knew they would and he did not say anything. I guess whatever side you take is up to you.

olganol [36]

These few steps!

<span><span>Compare: Author wanted to show similarities between ideas
Clue Words: both, similarly, in the same way, like, just as</span><span>Contrast: Author wanted to show differences between ideas
Clue Words: however, but, dissimilarly, on the other hand</span><span>Criticize: Author wanted to give a negative opinion of an idea
Clue Words: Look for words that show the author's negative opinion. Judgment words like "bad", "wasteful", and "poor" all demonstrate negative opinions. </span><span>Describe/Illustrate: Author wanted to paint a picture of an idea
Clue Words: Look for words that provide descriptive detail. Adjectives like "red", "lusty", "morose", "striped", "sparkling", and "crestfallen" are all illustrative.</span></span>

<span><span>Explain: Author wanted to break down an idea into simpler terms
Clue Words: Look for words that turn a complicated process into simple language. A "descriptive" text will use more adjectives. An "explanatory" text will usually be used with a complicated idea.</span><span>Identify/List: Author wanted to tell the reader about an idea or series of ideas
Clue Words: Text that identifies or lists, will name an idea or series of ideas without providing much description or opinion.</span></span> <span><span>Intensify: Author wanted to make an idea greater
Clue Words: Text that intensifies will add more specific details to the idea. Look for superlative adjectives and "bigger" concepts. A baby sadly crying is descriptive, but a baby mournfully howling red-cheeked for 30 minutes is more intense.</span><span>Suggest: Author wanted to propose an idea
Clue Words: <span>"Suggest" answers are usually positive opinions and try to sway the reader to believe. The author will provide a point, then use details to prove it</span>
