1. “How did Lincoln and Johnson each approach reconstruction?” Johnson did not have Lincoln’s moral sense and political judgement when it came to reconstruction. “As wartime president, Lincoln had offered amnesty to all but high-ranking Confederates” (464). Lincoln had proposed that when ten percent of a rebellious states voters had sworn loyalty (taken an oath), then the state would be restored to the Union as long as it had approved the thirteenth amendment to abolish slavery. Confederate states rejected Lincoln's offer, however Congress then proposed the Wade-Davis Bill, which Henretta refers to as a tougher substitute to Lincoln’s Ten Percent Plan.

The very next year in 1807 Great Britain decided that they were going to play the same game as France and made it illegal for France and all allies of France to trade with each other. In response to the childish games that France and Great Britain were playing the United States Congress passed laws to “[prohibit] U.S. vessels” from doing business with the European Nations (War of 1812 - 1815). In 1810 the United States decided that realistically this wasn 't exactly doing what it was suppose to so they opened trade back up with the European Nations on the condition that France and Great Britain

At the beginning of office he had himself immediately sworn in which set a precedent for all Vice Presidents who became President. He also vetoed bills that he thought would deter The United State from evolving. John Tyler did not make any appointments in the beginning of his Presidency, instead he continued to use Williams Henry Harrison entire cabinet, fearing of being disrespectful to Harrison. He did eventually appoint Samuel Nelson to the U.S. supreme court. Nelson served as an Associate Justice between 1845 and 1872, and was

He cites a historian named John Lawson, who talks about Native American folk lore surrounding the arrival of the British Colonists. In my opinion the use of folk lore shouldn’t be used in any evidence-based analysis; It’s unscholarly, and it doesn’t add anything to the conversation. In Allard’s final statement: “Although the fate of the Roanoke colonists may never be known for sure, it is clear that many factors—the difficult sea voyage, lack of supplies, poor relations with the Indians whose support they needed to survive, and the worst drought in 800 years—could have greatly reduced the odds of their survival. But people have overcome even worse odds before. More than four centuries later, the fate of the Lost Colony remains a mystery.” (Allard) He lays out plenty of evidence for both sides and still never draws a definitive conclusion to prove anything; causing the analysis to fall

Conflict with the Courts falls under the AP theme: Politics and Power. Madison’s midnight appointed judges did not have the chance to be given their commission letters and future judge Marbury called upon the Supreme Court to force Secretary Madison to give over his commission. Their legendary decision to not force an executive official to act was a win for the current administration because it kept more Federalists from gaining power in the judiciary system. Their overturning of Congress’s Judiciary Act of 1789 as unconstitutional was of more significance than their lack of action in commanding Madison to deliver letters. The Supreme Court overturning the Judiciary Act was caused by their realization that the judiciary branch should not have

When Thomas Jefferson won the election of 1800, the federalist President Adams proceeded to quickly fill vacancies in the judiciary with members of his own party that could be judge of lifetime if they had a good behavior. In response, the Republicans of Jefferson repealed the Judiciary Act of 1800. Although the President Adams tried of cover them vacant before the end of his mandate, a series of commissions had not been expressed. Therefore, when Jefferson became president, he refused to honor the appointments of last hour of President John Adams. As a result, William Marbury, one of those named demanded James Madison, the new Secretary of State, and asked the Supreme Court to order the delivery of his Commission as a Justice of the peace.

Injustice has been in works as old as the The Panchatantra and 1001 Nights. As an example of injustice in the modern world, in August of 2017, US President Donald Trump signed a directive that reinstates a ban on transgender citizens serving in the US military “in any capacity”. This law, as of yet, does not force currently serving transgender military personnel out, it just prohibits any more from enlisting. The cause of this ban was the concern about costs of gender-confirming surgeries for the military, and “cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs

Due to this preconceived North Carolinian sentiment, it is no surprise that the state’s General Assembly instructed North Carolina’s two U.S. senators, Benjamin Hawkins and Samuel Johnston, to oppose all excise taxes in December of 1790. As Hamilton continued to lobby for his excise bill to pass in the House in early 1791, Congressman John Sevier was openly dismissive of the bill, claiming that the tax would be unenforceable in North Carolina’s westernmost counties due to their remoteness. He even went so far as to candidly claim, “should the excise bill be passed, we shall derive great benefits from it; (proviso) we can keep clear ourselves, as it would have a direct tendency to encourage emigration into our country, and enable us to sell the production of our own distilleries, lower than our neighbours [sic].” Sevier was so strong in his belief that the tax would be unenforceable, that he believed that the lack of enforcement would encourage emigration to North Carolina and allow Tar Heel distillers to sell their goods at cheaper rates than their neighboring

Recently a big question has been brought to attention as to what will happen to students under DACA. During one of Trumps campaigns, he noted to “Immediately terminate President Obama’s two illegal executive amnesties (Aurcher),” which are DAPA -no longer exist and DACA. With Jeff sessions in office, his views for DACA students have been open to discussion. In the latest occurrences, he promised that they will not be targeted but he can’t promise to protect them, Since, he will enforce the laws as they are

This was a period in our country where morality, and equality, had come to be questioned for the first time since our country broke away from its European roots, and winning its independence on July 04, 1776. The American culture and its society would be changed forever over this twenty to thirty-year course. Forrest Gump is very simple-minded man who lives his life by a set of values forever instilled in him by his mother, Ms. Gump. In many ways the preoperational stage given to us by Jean Piaget applies very strongly to the movie Forrest Gump, for example when he started playing football, and joined the Vietnam War.
