The amendment exactly excluded the sitting president, Harry S Truman. Truman started a campaign for a third term in 1952, but after 18 days he said, he would not pursue a second full period. He leave after a meagre performance in the New Hampshire primary. The only Presidents therefore far who have attended two full terms since the Amendment's approval are Dwight D. Eisenhower, Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not mention the name of the text. Without the name of the text, we do not know what is included there.

However, trying to help you, we can comment on the following.

There is a text titled "The Voting Rights Act of 1965." If that is the case, we can say the following.

The author of this text refers to that legislation passed in the mid-sixties and says that there are laws that were passed to limit American minorities to exert their vote in elections. Of course, the author not only refers to African Americans, but to Hispanic people or Asian people.

In the case of African Americans, the author includes a series of legislation that had been passed in different states to limit their civil rights despite federal legislation.

Was the delian league formed to keep Sparta from gaining too much power
Daniel [21]
No, The Delian League, founded in 478 BC, was an association of Greek city-states, members numbering between 150[ to 330 under the leadership of Athens, whose purpose was to continue fighting the Persian Empire after the Greek victory in the Battle of Plataea at the end of the Second Persian invasion of Greece. The League's modern name derives from its official meeting place, the island of Delos, where congresses were held in the temple and where the treasury stood until, in a symbolic gesture, Pericles<span> moved it to Athens in 454 BC. 

</span>Shortly<span> after its inception, Athens began to use the </span>League<span>'s navy for its own purposes. This behavior </span>frequently<span> led to conflict between Athens and the less powerful </span>members<span> of the League. By 431 BC, Athens' </span>heavy-handed<span> control of the Delian League prompted the </span>outbreak<span> of the </span>Peloponnesian War<span>; the League was </span>dissolved<span> upon the war's conclusion in 404 BC under the direction of </span>Lysander<span>, the </span>Spartan<span> commander.</span>

What weather conditions were necessary to drop a bomb on Hiroshima
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Some of the most frequent queries concerning the atomic bombs are those dealing with the selection of the targets and the decision as to when the bombs would be used.

The approximate date for the first use of the bomb was set in the fall of 1942 after the Army had taken over the direction of and responsibility for the atomic bomb project. At that time, under the scientific assumptions which turned out to be correct, the summer of 1945 was named as the most likely date when sufficient production would have been achieved to make it possible actually to construct and utilize an atomic bomb. It was essential before this time to develop the technique of constructing and detonating the bomb and to make an almost infinite number of scientific and engineering developments and tests. Between the fall of 1942 and June 1945, the estimated probabilities of success had risen from about 60% to above 90%; however, not until July 16, 1945, when the first full-scale test took place in New Mexico, was it conclusively proven that the theories, calculations, and engineering were correct and that the bomb would be successful.

The test in New Mexico was held 6 days after sufficient material had become available for the first bomb. The Hiroshima bomb was ready awaiting suitable weather on July 31st, and the Nagasaki bomb was used as soon after the Hiroshima bomb as it was practicable to operate the second mission.

The work on the actual selection of targets for the atomic bomb was begun in the spring of 1945. This was done in close cooperation with the Commanding General, Army Air Forces, and his Headquarters. A number of experts in various fields assisted in the study. These included mathematicians, theoretical physicists, experts on the blast effects of bombs, weather consultants, and various other specialists. Some of the important considerations were:

The range of the aircraft which would carry the bomb.

The desirability of visual bombing in order to insure the most effective use of the bomb.

Probable weather conditions in the target areas.

Importance of having one primary and two secondary targets for each mission, so that if weather conditions prohibited bombing the target there would be at least two alternates.

Selection of targets to produce the greatest military effect on the Japanese people and thereby most effectively shorten the war.

The morale effect upon the enemy.
