Which of the following did Andrew Jackson not support?
Excerpt taken from The Historic Rise of Old Hickory by Suzanne B. Williams
Four major candidates ran in the 1824 election, all under the "Democratic-Republican" name. One of the candidates, Andrew Jackson, was already famous. In the 1780s, he earned the right to practice law and served in various offices of the state government, including senator. He earned the nickname "Old Hickory" for his toughness as a general during the War of 1812 and First Seminole War. Jackson supported slavery and "Indian removal." This earned him support from voters in southern and frontier states. The other three candidates were John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts, Henry Clay of Kentucky, and William Crawford of Georgia.
U.S. presidents are elected through the Electoral College. The Founding Fathers worried that Americans were too spread out to learn enough about the candidates. Under the Electoral College, Americans cast their ballot for the popular vote, which chooses the electors for each state. The number of electoral votes each state equals the number of representatives and senators combined. The candidates must win an absolute majority of electoral votes to win the election.
In 1824, Andrew Jackson won the popular vote, but he did not win it in each state. Jackson and Adams both won many electoral votes. Jackson won the most with 99. However, a candidate needs an absolute majority of electoral votes to win. In 1824, Jackson needed 131 to win. When there is not majority winner, the election goes to the House of Representatives. This has only happened twice in U.S. history.
Even though he won the popular vote and many electoral votes, Andrew Jackson lost the presidency in 1824. John Quincy Adams was the Secretary of State at this time. Henry Clay was the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Henry Clay, receiving the least, was left out. However, as a leader in the House of Representatives, he had influence over the other members. Clay openly hated Jackson and there were rumors that Clay made a deal with Adams in exchange for his support. The House election declared John Quincy Adams president. Soon, he chose Henry Clay to fill the seat he left vacant, Secretary of State. Jackson was shocked and enraged. Although there was no inquiry of possible wrongdoing, Jackson accused Adams and Clay of making a "corrupt bargain."
John Quincy Adams was a disappointment as president. Many of his goals created divisions like federal funds for internal improvement. Some states thought that taking federal funds would force them to follow certain rules. They felt this reduced their rights as independent states. Jackson took advantage of issues like this one to gather more support. More Jackson supporters found their way to seats in Congress. He was as a man of the people and said Adams could never understand the common man’s concerns.
John Quincy Adams ran against Andrew Jackson in the 1828 election. Personal attacks grew even more vicious, but Andrew Jackson appealed to many. He believed government was for the common man. He believed in strict reading of the law and limited internal improvements. He also believed in states’ rights.
Andrew Jackson easily won the 1828 election, winning both the popular vote and a majority of electoral votes. Historians note the sectional nature of the voting. Support for Jackson was concentrated in South while Adams’ support was mostly in the North. Jackson was so popular because he brought changes to the government. He also wanted to make sure the government was responsible for its actions. Jackson pushed settlement into the frontier. He supported the Indian Removal act. He also defended the spread of slavery. Though his support was heavier in the South, he was determined to keep a unified nation. The rise and presidency of Old Hickory is memorable to Americans today.
Which of the following did Andrew Jackson not support?

A: A limited national government
B: Spreading of slavery to the frontier

Describe Plessy vs. Ferguson:
Answer:
Explanation:
Plessy v. Ferguson was a landmark 1896 U.S. Supreme Court decision that upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the “separate but equal” doctrine. The case stemmed from an 1892 incident in which African American train passenger Homer Plessy refused to sit in a car for Black people. Rejecting Plessy’s argument that his constitutional rights were violated, the Supreme Court ruled that a law that “implies merely a legal distinction” between white people and Black people was not unconstitutional. As a result, restrictive Jim Crow legislation and separate public accommodations based on race became commonplace.
Plessy v. Ferguson: Background and Context
After the Compromise of 1877 led to the withdrawal of federal troops from the South, Democrats consolidated control of state legislatures throughout the region, effectively marking the end of Reconstruction.
Southern Black people saw the promise of equality under the law embodied by the 13th Amendment, 14th Amendment and 15th Amendment to the Constitution receding quickly, and a return to disenfranchisement and other disadvantages as white supremacy reasserted itself across the South.
As historian C. Vann Woodward pointed out in a 1964 article about Plessy v. Ferguson, white and Black Southerners mixed relatively freely until the 1880s, when state legislatures passed the first laws requiring railroads to provide separate cars for “Negro” or “colored” pa_sengers.
Florida became the first state to mandate segr_gated railroad cars in 1887, followed in quick succession by Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana and other states by the end of the century.

Examine the benefits and drawbacks of the ways in which Alexander used cultural diffusion in his conquest of other regions. Considering your list from the previous activity, write a paragraph of 100 to 150 words that analyzes the benefits and the drawbacks of cultural diffusion.
Answer:
There were immense qualities for Alexander, the great as a leader. One of the greatest qualities a leader should have been ambition. Alexander wanted to establish a vast empire and his ambition was fulfilled. He had conquered almost all the major countries of the Middle East and Asia Minor. He had also overthrown the Persian Empire by defeating the Persian king, Darius III.
He was one of the greatest military geniuses of all times. He was the inspiration of all the later rulers. His art of warfare was later studied by the later great rulers and generals in history. Alexander's leadership qualities in military and politics were obvious. He became the leader of powerful force which conquered all parts of the world including Asia. Alexander was also a great strategist.
Explanation:
Answer:
One benefit of cultural diffusion is the ability to communicate with others. When people have a common language and alphabet, it’s much easier to talk to others and share ideas. It also provides an opportunity to spread new ideas and discover different ways of thinking. A drawback of cultural diffusion is the loss of cultural identity, traditions, and languages. People could quickly lose the customs, celebrations, and stories that made their culture rich and unique.

Read the passage.
The northern lights are an amazing spectacle that can be seen in the sky near the North Pole. They occur when charged particles from solar storms are released into space from the sun and crash into gases in the Earth’s atmosphere. The charged particles excite atoms and molecules in the gases. When the atoms and molecules become excited, they release light and produce glowing bands of color on the horizon. Different gases release different colors. For example, nitrogen sends out blue or purplish-red light, while oxygen usually gives off green light.
What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
to explain why the sky changes colors
to describe the causes of the northern lights
to list the different gases that make up the sky
