On april 30, 1975, when the last helicopter lifted off the roof of the U.S. Embassy in Saigon, the Vietnam War, the most consequential event in American history since World War II, ended in failure. More than 58,000 Americans and as many as 3 million Vietnamese had died in the conflict. America’s illusions of invincibility had been shattered, its moral confidence shaken. The war undermined the country’s faith in its most respected institutions, particularly the military and the presidency. The military eventually recovered. The presidency never has.
It did not happen all at once, this radical diminution of trust. Over more than a decade, the accumulated weight of critical reporting about the war, the publication of the Pentagon Papers in 1971, and the declassification of military and intelligence reports tarnished the office. Nor did the process stop when that last chopper took off. New evidence of hypocrisy has continued to appear, an acidic drip, drip, drip on the image of the presidency. The three men who are most responsible for the war, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Richard Nixon, each made the fateful decision to record their deliberations about it. The tapes they left behind—some of them still newly public, others long obscured by the sheer volume of the material—are extraordinary. They expose the presidents’ secret motives and fears, at once humanizing the men and deepening the disillusionment with the office they held.
The Republican Party thought that the United States needed Richard Nixon because he promised to
win the Vietnam War.

Answer:
Well I would say true, because some people would think there not good enough to accomplish what they would want to do.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
Think about it. If I told you that you had to do something to stop global warming just because I want you to do it would you do it? In that case most people would not. Now if I told you I'd give you a million dollars if you did would you do it? Most likely you would. So yes I believe that without motivation, nothing would get done in this world.

Which is an accurate rewording of President Lincoln’s inaugural promise to the seceded states?
A. I will command the military to attack immediately to force you back into the Union.
B. I will resign as President if you will return to the Union.
C. I will not attack you and don’t intend to interfere in slavery in your states.
D. I will insist upon the end of slavery in your states.
Answer:
Hello There. the Correct answer is C. I will not attack you and don't intend to interfere in slavery in your states.
Explanation: Because LincoIn's “I have always hated slavery,” Lincoln said. But slavery was deeply rooted in the
Constitution. He had understood that it could not be uprooted overnight.
Lincoln had won the presidency in 1860 vowing to stop slavery from spreading. Free
territories would one day ripen into free states, and slavery would be surrounded. With
its roots choked off, slavery would eventually die out.
For much of his first year, Lincoln had focused on ending the Southern rebellion.
Somehow, he had to address the root cause. The Constitution offered little help. It had
left slavery in the hands of individual states.
But the war opened up new possibilities. Lincoln believed the Constitution allowed the
President to do in wartime what he could never do in times of peace. Hope It Helps! .ω.ItsNobodyUlysses S. Grant and George McClellan _____.
a. were both among the top generals in the Confederacy
b. were very different personally and in their military tactics

Answer: Answer B,
Explanation: they were generals in the civil war which rules out C, because the civil war was in Maryland, Virginia, etc. They fought for the Union, not the confederacy so A is out of the question, and they both fought for the union side so they could not fight each other. Hope this helps.

Trillions of U.S. dollars are going to poor countries. Why doesn’t it help individual people? Where’s the money going? ( These are old questions )
Answer:hope it helps
Explanation: These days, they give more than $125bn (£102bn) in aid each year – solid evidence of their benevolent goodwill.
This story is so widely propagated by the aid industry and the governments of the rich world that we have come to take it for granted. But it may not be as simple as it appears.
The US-based Global Financial Integrity (GFI) and the Centre for Applied Research at the Norwegian School of Economics recently published some fascinating data. They tallied up all of the financial resources that get transferred between rich countries and poor countries each year: not just aid, foreign investment and trade flows (as previous studies have done) but also non-financial transfers such as debt cancellation, unrequited transfers like workers’ remittances, and unrecorded capital flight (more of this later). As far as I am aware, it is the most comprehensive assessment of resource transfers ever undertaken.
Donna runs a bookstore, and she has noticed that she is not selling many children’s books. How do supply and demand shape Donna's problem, and what are some ways she might be able to sell more children's books?
Explanation:
If there are lots of children books there little to no urgency to purchase them therefore the demand goes down. Because the sale for them are low to make up the money spent on them the prices increase further driving people away from purchasing. Some potential ways for her to sell more would be to lower the cost or lower the variety.

Separate How have laws and politics discriminated against people?
Answer:
Jim Crow Laws
Explanation:
Jim Crow laws were state and local laws that enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States. All were enacted in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by white Democratic-dominated state legislatures to disenfranchise and remove political and economic gains made by blacks during the Reconstruction period. The Jim Crow laws were enforced until 1965. In practice, Jim Crow laws mandated racial segregation in all public facilities in the states of the former Confederate States of America and other states, starting in the 1870s and 1880s. Jim Crow laws were upheld in 1896 in the case of Plessy vs. Ferguson, in which the U.S. Supreme Court laid out its "separate but equal" legal doctrine for facilities for African Americans. Moreover, public education had essentially been segregated since its establishment in most of the South after the Civil War
Answer:
In many countries, laws result in people being treated differently, excluded from
essential services or being subject to undue restrictions on how they live their lives,
simply because of who they are. Such laws are discriminatory they deny human rights and
fundamental freedoms.
People may experience more than one form of discrimination. A person may experience
discrimination because of his or her health status and because of his or her race, gender
identity or sexual orientation, compounding the effects on the individual and the wider
community.
Laws such as laws on sex work, same sex sexual relations, the use or possession of
drugs for personal use and the non disclosure, exposure or transmission of HIV may
discriminate by criminalizing conduct or identity.
Other laws may prevent people from accessing benefits or services. Girls may not be
allowed to go to school if they are pregnant or women may not be able to access financial
services without their husband’s permission. Laws may also impose parental consent for
adolescents to access health services or restrict the entry, stay and residence of people
living with HIV.
