Why is the process of nominating candidates considered to be the most important function political parties play in american gove

NARA [144]

Answer: Political parties have proven to be more successful than any other group in terms of nomination

Explanation: Although other social groups participated in the nomination and appointment of candidates for office, they were not as successful as the political parties that have literally evolved in the business over time. With the expansion of the electorate and political parties were increasingly engaged in mobilising as large an army of voters as possible. In this way political parties have institutionalised themselves in order to carry out this very important, if not crucial and essential task, on which the influence and survival of the party depends at the end of the day.

PLZ HELP I'LL DO ANY THING

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Here is some stuff. State in your own words.

The Classical period was an era of classical music between roughly 1730 and 1820. The Classical period falls between the Baroque and the Romantic periods. Classical music has a lighter, clearer texture than Baroque music and is less complex. The harpsichord was replaced as the main keyboard instrument by the piano (or fortepiano). Unlike the harpsichord, which plucks strings with quills, pianos strike the strings with leather-covered hammers when the keys are pressed, which enables the performer to play louder or softer (hence the original name "fortepiano," literally "loud soft") and play with more expression; in contrast, the force with which a performer plays the harpsichord keys does not change the sound.
