Sir Edmund Andros undermined and suppressed the town governments of the Dominion of New England, including the Massachusetts assembly. He decreased the authority of the Massachusetts assembly. C is correct, because the merchants, ministers, and militias of Boston arrested Sir Edmund Andros and his aides to remove him from power once word of the Glorious Revolution reached them. The colonists figured that if the people of England could remove a hated leader then they could remove their hated governor. Sir Edmund Andros was deposed as a result of the Glorious Revolution, but shortly after the new monarchs installed new royal governors in an attempt to reassert royal authority.

Following the Mariel Boat Wave Ronald Reagan criticized Carter for allowing the Mariel refugees into the United States (Gonzalez 113).
