Why were the Anti-Federalists so powerful during the Constitution ratification process?

Answers

Answer:

The Anti Federalists needed 5 state votes to vote no, while the Federalists needed 9 states to vote yes, 9 of 13 had to approve. Northern states approved, Southern states were divided and were unhappy with the 3/5 comprise. Virginia and New York demanded a Bill of Rights before ratifying it.

Explanation:

The Anti-Federalists feared the national government would hold too much power and that citizens rights would be in danger. They felt the nation did not need a standing army and that the Constitution would not protect individual rights. They wanted a Bill of Rights.

How did Stalin and the Soviet Union initially respond to the end of World War

Answers

Answer:

At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union occupied Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Poland and eastern Germany. Great Britain, the United States, France, and the Soviet Union divided Germany and Berlin into four occupation zones to be administered by the four countries. The Soviet Union was determined to establish governments in Eastern Europe who were friendly to the Soviet Union. While the war was still taking place, Soviet occupation troops assisted local communists in putting Communist dictatorships in Romania and Bulgaria in power. Yugoslavia and Albania supported the rise of communist dictatorships in their countries; however, both of these countries remained outside of the Soviet sphere of influence. In 1949 the Communist German Democratic Republic was established in the Soviet, German occupation zone. The East European satellite regimes depended on Soviet military power to maintain control of their communist governments. Over one million Red Army soldiers remained stationed in Eastern Europe. On March 5, 1946, Winston Churchill, speaking at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri with President Harry S. Truman on the stage with him, summed up the situation in Europe with what is known as the “Iron Curtain” speech: “From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the continent.”  Churchill’s speech may have been the first shot fired in the Cold War which would last until 1989.

Explanation:

Answer:

Stalin guaranteed that the Soviet Union would declare war on Japan within 6 months after the end of hostilities in Europe. While the diplomats and politicians engaged in trying to shape the postwar world, Soviet forces from the east and Allied forces from the west continued to advance on Germany.

The excerpt below was written by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes in the decision of Schenck v. United States (1919).



The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shounting fire in a theatre and causing a panic.... The question in everycase is whether the words used are used in such curcumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that congress has a right to prevent.

Which conduct did the U.S Supreme Court determine was a “clear and present danger” in this case?

Answers

Answer: The mailing of pamphlets advising young men to resist the draft

Explanation:

As much as every American is entitled to freedom of speech by the First Commandment, according to the case of Schenck v. United States (1919), that does not apply when the words spoken created a clear and present danger.

This is what the defendants in the case had done when they mailed pamphlets to young men urging them to resist a draft into the U.S. army even though the Americans were now at war with Germany in the first World War.

What contribution did Barack Obama make and how did he impact the world

Answers

Answer:

When President Obama left office on January 20, 2017, his impact and legacy were unclear. He will always be the first African American president in US history, and his administration was notable for its stability. With Republicans in control of both the presidency and the Congress in 2017, however, some of Obama’s most notable achievements—the Affordable Care Act, the Paris climate change agreement, and Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals—were overturned or under attack.

Obama’s lasting impact on American life may turn out to have been greatest in terms of the crises that did not happen. Despite teetering on the edge of economic catastrophe, the nation did not fall into the abyss of a second Great Depression in 2009. And despite calls for more aggressive military action, the nation scaled back on its troop commitments rather than launching additional wars. How long and in what form Obama’s policy changes will endure remains to be seen. Those that depended on unilateral executive action have been the most fragile, since they can be undone by subsequent actions by his successors in the presidency.

Obama’s job approval rating in polls of the American people rose during his second term, cresting at about 60 percent during his final months in office. The public also rated him highly in comparison with other recent presidents. A Quinnipiac University polls released in late January 2017 found that 29 percent said he was the greatest president since World War II, just one point behind Ronald Reagan, who was named by 30 percent and well ahead of every other postwar president.

The Black PresidencyScholars who were surveyed at about the same time agreed. In a C-SPAN survey of 91 historians, political scientists, and other presidential scholars, Obama was ranked 12th among all presidents since George Washington for the overall quality of his performance as chief executive. Among his recent predecessors, Obama surpassed George W. Bush, who ranked 33rd, Bill Clinton (15th), and George H.W. Bush (20th), but not the president whose trajectory-changing legacy Obama once said he wanted to emulate: Ronald Reagan, who ranked 8th.

why claudette colvin's actions remain little known today​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The author feels that the activists of that time didn't feel like a teenager would be a good icon for a movement. So, Claudette Colvin's action still remain little known today.


On March 2, 1955, Colvin was riding home on a city bus after school when a bus driver told her to give up her seat to a white passenger. She refused, saying, "It's my constitutional right to sit here as much as that lady. I paid my fare, it's my constitutional right." Colvin felt compelled to stand her ground.

After her refusal to give up her seat, Colvin was arrested on several charges, including violating the city's segregation laws.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People briefly considered using Colvin's case to challenge the segregation laws, but they decided against it because of her age. She also had become pregnant and they thought an unwed mother would attract too much negative attention in a public legal battle.

Colvin opposed the segregation law by declaring herself not guilty. The court, however, ruled against her and put her on probation. Despite the light sentence, Colvin could not escape the court of public opinion. The once-quiet student was branded a troublemaker by some, and she had to drop out of college. Her reputation also made it impossible for her to find a job.

Plaintiff in 'Browder v. Gayle'

Despite her personal challenges, Colvin became one of the four plaintiffs in the Browder v. Gayle case, along with Aurelia S. Browder, Susie McDonald and Mary Louise Smith (Jeanatta Reese, who was initially named a plaintiff in the case, withdrew early on due to outside pressure). The decision in the 1956 case, which had been filed by Fred Gray and Charles D. Langford on behalf of the aforementioned African American women, ruled that Montgomery's segregated bus system was unconstitutional.

Two years later, Colvin moved to New York City, where she had her second son, Randy, and worked as a nurse's aide at a Manhattan nursing home. She retired in 2004.

While her role in the fight to end segregation in Montgomery may not be widely recognized, Colvin helped advance civil rights efforts in the city. "Claudette gave all of us moral courage. If she had not done what she did, I am not sure that we would have been able to mount the support for Mrs. Parks," her former attorney, Fred Gray, told Newsweek.


Hope this helps you to understand why her action remains little unknown

Why might dictators and tyrants need to manipulate audience appeals

Answers

Answer:

To get more supporters, like a bunch of puppets or an army

Explanation:

Answer:

They have to manipulate their people, and the outside viewers to give them a false illusion of greatness. For example, North Korean propaganda paints Kim Jong Un as a hero, a supreme leader, and almost a god. And the North Korean people may be tricked by this because who are they to stand up to the false Korean leader. But, no outside viewers buy into this propaganda because we know the conditions that exist behind the walls of the country, and I'm not sure if the North Koreans themselves buy into it but they can't really do much either due to the fear of government murder or labor camps.

Explanation:

I hope that one day, these dictators are no more.
