DBQ 19 As of the 1970?s, the United States had been faced with economic and social turmoil., The Vietnam war, lasting from 1965-1975, was a controversial issue among many Americans. Most argued that it was not a war the US needed to be involved and ultimately wasted money and resources. Former President Nixon faced confrontation over the Watergate scandal as the economy under President Carter?s administration continued to decline. These conflicts created a mistrust between the national government and the American people. In 1980, Ronald Reagan is elected as presidents in hopes to improve the nation?s economy. The Reagan administration was overall effective in addressing the domestic and foreign affairs presented to them.

Chapter 13 The Rise of a Mass Democracy 1824-1840 ? The "Corrupt Bargain" of 1824 There were 4 main "Republican" candidates in the election of 1824:? Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, William Crawford, and Henry Clay. No candidate won the majority of the electoral votes, so, according to the Constitution, the House of Representatives had to choose the winner.? Henry Clay, the Speaker of the House, was thus eliminated although he did have much say in who became president.? Clay convinced the House to elect John Quincy Adams as president.?

Much of the public felt that a "corrupt bargain" had taken place because Andrew Jackson had received the popular vote.? ? A Yankee Misfit in the White House

Rugged Individualism Speech, Herbert Hoover, 1928 As a nation we came out of the war with great losses. We made no profits from it. The apparent increases in wages were fictitious.
