President Franklin Roosevelt's Court Packing Scheme

Their job was to decide if any measure of the New Deal did not agree with the American Constitution so it could be denied. Since they were Republican, they had a natural resentment at the New Deal and found the NIRA and the AAA (Agricultural Adjustment Agency) unconstitutional. After his second election, Roosevelt made some bad, public decisions like trying to ‘pack the court’ by attempting to appoint six judges who would vote in his favour. Interestingly, the Supreme Court voted in favour of some policies of the New Deal like pensions in the Social Security Act. There was minor opposition from within the Democratic Party as well.

Andrew Jackson was a villain for a few reasons. One reason why Jackson was a villain is because he put America at risk. After he won this first term as president, Jackson put his supporters in top government positions. This meant that Jackson put less qualified people in charge of making the decisions that are necessary for America’s success. Furthermore, even after the Peggy Eaton affair in which Jackson was forced to have his unqualified cabinet to resign, he still only took advice from his loyal friends and supporters, known by his enemies as the “kitchen cabinet”.

“Substituting dollars for bullets”, this policy wanted to prevent Latin American countries by managing the finances of “backward” countries and further American interest in East Asia through the use of economic might instead of military might.

President Roosevelt's idea of the three “R’s”(relief, recovery, and reform) did bring a significant impact to American society and it overturned the public’s thoughts about government intervention. Before the New Deal people preferred a free-market economic system and limited government ,but after they realized that government intervention was as important as freedom. Due to the New Deal, Americans believed that they had the strength to pass challenging situations. They did not loose hope as shown by President Roosevelt’s statement “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” ("Franklin D. Roosevelt) This statement was a response to the problems caused by Great Depression, and The New Deal and its aims effectively exemplified the idea that although the situation was worse, we still had the determination to overcome

He then raised taxes on cars he believed took up too much gasoline to power them. Another thing Jimmy Carter could have done better at but did not do such a good job at was international policies while he was in office. New threats from the middle east and the cold war nations made Jimmy Carter give things to those nations that would end up hurting the United States. When he put in place his Carter Doctrine which would not allow the U.S.S.R to expand he did it without looking at the future. This policy is to blame when it comes to most of the problems of the Middle East today.

Hoover didn 't want to give handouts out, fearing that it would weaken or destroy the national fiber that Americans had, rugged individualism. Eventually, when things got even worse, he compromised and began to assist the railroads and banks, hoping that relief on the big industries would help those under them. In response to this, the people of the nation began to accuse him of helping big businesses instead of individuals who had it much worse off. They accused him of not being able to feed the people of his nation, while in the past, he had sent massive amounts of food overseas to the Belgians. President Herbert Hoover 's policies that anticipated Franklin Roosevelt 's New Deal included help from the federal level for businesses and

If the South was defeated, he hoped ending slavery would be the end of the conflict. Before the Thirteenth Amendment was passed, President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which set millions of slaves free, although many had to serve in the Army. Lincoln feared that congress would cancel the Emancipation Proclamation, so he decided to propose the Thirteenth Amendment, which was a more stable result (https://prezi.com/fiots83awse4/the-13th-amendment/).

Despite their different ideologies, it was decided that Germany had to be carefully controlled politically and economically in the hope of preventing further wars or world crisis. A planned economy was put in force and it resulted in economic disaster. If the plan was making Germans suffer for the war, they succeeded, but that didn’t mean that all the Nazi ideologies were gone. The increasing demand for allies against communism and Soviet Union inspired the United States to promote the recovery and economic integration of the European countries.

His idealism made him difficult to compromise and stubborn, and he was convinced in his own right. Wilson Tackles the Tariff The triple wall of privilege against tariffs, the banks, and the trusts. Wilson did not send his presidential message over to Capitol, but appeared in person presenting his appeal, which was unprecedented.

Many in Congress, including some Democrats, rejected the idea.

Election of 1800 Jefferson and Burr tied in the number of electoral votes and then Hamilton supported Jefferson, which eventually won him the election. This was significant because political power was shifted between parties, peacefully. Also, it caused further conflict between Burr and Hamilton. Each side believed that victory by the other would ruin the nation.
