The excerpt below is from a 1983 speech by President Ronald Reagan:

So, I urge you to speak out against those who would place the United States in a position of military and moral inferiority ... So, in your discussions of the nuclear freeze proposals, I urge you to beware the temptation of pride -- the temptation of blithely declaring yourselves above it all and label both sides equally at fault, to ignore the facts of history and the aggressive impulses of an evil empire, to simply call the arms race a giant misunderstanding and thereby remove yourself from the struggle between right and wrong and good and evil.

Based on this excerpt, which of the following conclusions can be drawn about President Reagan's foreign policy?

He wanted to rid communist countries of their nuclear weapons while continuing to build up the United States' military power.

He called for religious leaders to travel to foreign countries to help spread a message of peace and nonviolence to communist countries.

He believed the United States should improve its weapons system to prove itself a threat to communist countries like the Soviet Union.

He argued that government leaders should support his efforts to rid all the world's countries of nuclear weapons.

Answer 6

MEOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Answer 7

Undoubtedly, Reagan's single most important foreign policy was to contain and ultimately rollback communism, especially that of the Soviet Union. He used a mix of hard nosed confrontation and conciliatory negotiation. He also demonstrated to them that the U.S. could out innovate and outproduce their military.

I think an important factor to pushing the fall of communism in the Eastern European bloc, was Ronald Reagan's support of Pope John Paul II in his first trip to Poland following his entry to the papacy. Reagan was supportive of Polish opposition to communism and supported the pro-democracy movement called Solidarity.

The answer would most adequately be A.

Answer 8

The text below is from a speech given by President Franklin Roosevelt about European events in 1937:

"It seems to be unfortunately true that the epidemic of world lawlessness is spreading. When an epidemic of physical disease starts to spread, the community approves and joins in a quarantine of the patients in order to protect the health of the community against the spread of the disease."

Source: http://www.ibiblio.org/pha/7-2-188/188-07.html

Which explains why the majority of Americans opposed Roosevelt's speech?

Roosevelt discouraged U.S. involvement in the European conflict despite calls from former allies to become involved.

Roosevelt argued in defense of fascist leaders in Europe, which angered citizens who believed in democratic principles.

Roosevelt encouraged the U.S. government to remain neutral despite the rise of dictatorships in Europe.

Roosevelt promoted U.S. intervention in the European conflict, which went against mainstream support of U.S. isolationism.

Answer 9

Following the United State's exit from the First World War, America became extremely isolationist and became critical of intervening in the affairs of other countries. The anti-European sentiment was strong throughout the country. Roosevelt took a steady route to gain the United States entry into the war, but had a very difficult time doing so because he lacked congressional and mainstream support.

Therefore the answer is: Roosevelt promoted U.S. intervention in the European conflict, which went against mainstream support of U.S. isolationism.

Answer 10

thank you for helping.

The quote below comes from the War Powers Resolution:

The President in every possible instance shall consult with Congress before introducing United States Armed Forces into hostilities or into situation where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, and after every such introduction shall consult regularly with the Congress until United States Armed Forces are no longer engaged in hostilities or have been removed from such situations.

How did the Vietnam War contribute to passage of this resolution?

It showed Republicans that Democrats were not committed to containment strongly enough.

It made it seem as though the president had broken the law.

It demonstrated the consequences of giving the president too much power over the military.

It made members of Congress question the need for continuing to give the military a large budget.

Answer 13

The nation, and members of Congress, were very critical of the Vietnam War. Protests were wide-spread over the sensibility of getting involved in Vietnam. The Vietnam War was initiated without a declaration of war by the Congress. Congress passed the War Powers Resolution act to limit the authority of the executive.

It demonstrated the consequences of giving the president too much power over the military.

Source: http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0367_0643_ZO.html

Answer 25

Why would the phrase "controlling wages and prices" complete this diagram?

The war weakened the U.S. economy, making controls necessary.

The wartime economy required cooperation from workers and industry.

The entry of women into the workforce created the need for controls

The lack of jobs during the war led to lower wages and falling prices.

Answer 26

War-time economies tend to have massive amounts of government spending in order to retain massive projects that would expand the military's inventory. Therefore, the economy needed to be controlled and required cooperation from workers and industries.

Answer 27

so its b
