What the answer is to this question
A quick look at 20th century history will show that this country has enjoyed greater prosperity and equality every time Democrats have held power in Washington . - Representative Susan Mercer, Democratic Party spokesperson In what way is the source likely biased?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can comment on the following.
The way in which the source is likely biased is in that it does not provide any support, data, statistics, or any kind of information that truly shows clear evidence of what representative Mercer is saying.
Susan Mercer is biased by her political affiliation and is talking on behalf of her opinion as she belongs to the Democratic Party and defends the policy and platform of this political party.
When she says: "A quick look at 20th-century history will show that this country has enjoyed greater prosperity and equality every time Democrats have held power in Washington," Representative Susan Mercer, is offering a personal statement, and that's it.
Republicans could argue that she is not supporting any evidence, and they could add that during Republican administrations is when the country has enjoyed great prosperity and equality. And to do it correctly and not biased, they have to show proper sources of evidence.
How has the government created change within American society?
Answer:The government created change within American society by, changing societal attitudes about slavery and equality repeatedly forced by the government.
Explanation: For example; Ethical changes: Since before the United States was founded, slavery was looked upon as a necessary evil. Changing societal attitudes about slavery and equality repeatedly forced the government to address this issue, from the three-fifths compromise at the Constitutional Convention in 1787; to passage of the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1870, giving black citizens the right to vote; to the landmark 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. the Board of Education of Topeka, which ruled that forced racial segregation was unconstitutional. Each of these changes was driven by the prevailing ethical beliefs of the time.
Changes in gender roles: Gone are the days when women were expected to be compliant housewives and mothers. Over time, social mores concerning what women can do and should be able to do have changed, and the government has changed right along with them. One hundred years ago, women didn't even have the right to vote, but now, women sit in Congress, on the Supreme Court, and in the Space Shuttle.
Religious changes: The government hasn't handled all new issues with as much success. During the second half of the nineteenth century, the widely growing temperance movement called for the prohibition of alcoholic beverages and garnered some successes in particular states. The federal government was eventually forced to deal with the issue and passed the 18th Amendment. For 14 years, it was a federal crime to manufacture, transport, or sell liquor in the United States. The result: speakeasies, bootleggers, and a rise in organized crime. Congress repealed the 18th Amendment with passage of the 21st Amendment, and the so-called Noble Experiment was deemed a failure.
Technological changes: Perhaps the most volatile aspect of American society these days is the rate of technological growth, and the U.S. government has responded to new technological issues as well. In many cases, whole new sectors of government have been created to deal with technological change, such as the Federal Communications Commission (founded in 1934), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and NASA (both in 1958), and the Federal Department of Transportation (1966). One recent government response to technological change (and a direct result of American society's passion for wireless technology) is the FCCs ruling that television stations must transmit all-digital signals by June 12, 2009.

Women at the start of the 20th century
It is only over the last three or four decades that women's role in the history of South Africa has, belatedly, been given some recognition. Previously the history of women's political organization, their struggle for freedom from oppression, for community rights and, importantly, for gender equality, was largely ignored in history texts. Not only did most of these older books lean heavily towards white political development to the detriment of studies of the history and interaction of whites with other racial groups, but they also focused on the achievements of men (often on their military exploits or leadership ability) virtually leaving women out of South African history.
The reason for this ‘invisibility' of women, calls for some explanation. South African society (and this applies in varying degrees to all race groups) are conventionally patriarchal. In other words, it was the men who had authority in society; women were seen as subordinate to men. Women's role was primarily a domestic one; it included child rearing and seeing to the well-being, feeding and care of the family. They were not expected to concern themselves with matters outside the home – that was more properly the domain of men. Economic activity beyond the home (in order to help feed and clothe the family) was acceptable, but not considered ‘feminine'. However, with the rise of the industrial economy, the growth of towns and (certainly in the case of indigenous societies) the development of the migrant labour system, these prescriptions on the role of women, as we shall see, came to be overthrown.
This is a particularly appropriate time to be studying the role of women in the progress towards the new South African democracy. The year 2006 was a landmark year in which we celebrated the massive Women's March to the Union Buildings in Pretoria 50 years ago. Women throughout the country had put their names to petitions and thus indicated anger and frustration at having their freedom of movement restricted by the hated official passes. The bravery of these women (who risked official reprisals including arrest, detention and even bannings) is applauded here. So too are their organizational skills and their community-consciousness – they were tired of staying at home, powerless to make significant changes to a way of life that discriminated against them primarily because of their race, but also because of their class and their gender.
We invite you to read, in the pages that follow, on the important role played by women in twentieth-century South Africa. A list of works for further reading and some appropriate documents are also included in this archive. Women, half the population after all, have been silent for too long in our history books, and although this need is now to an extent being addressed, there is still a huge gap in our knowledge on the role of South African women. It is high time that our young South Africans should put the record straight.
Match the events that took place to their causes rooted in the Articles of Confederation. Philadelphia Mutiny Shays' Rebellion Mount Vernon Conference Could not maintain an army in peacetime arrowRight No power to raise money arrowRight Could not regulate interstate trade arrowRight
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The correct matches are the following.
Shays' Rebellion - Could not maintain an army in peacetime
Mount Vernon Conference - Could not regulate interstate trade.
Philadelphia Mutiny - No power to raise money.
The Articles of Confederation was the first Constitution of the United States. It had thirteen sections but had many deficiencies.
Under the Articles of Confederation, the central government could not have an army, could not raise money, and just had some capabilities that were not important.
The states remained sovereign and were the ones that could raise money through taxation.
That is why delegates had to meet in the Constitutional Convention of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1787, to create a new form of government and a new Constitution.

The correct answer to this question is the following.
Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the quotation. Without it, we do not know what is its content, just you know it.
However, trying to help you we did some deep research and can comment on the following.
What G. W. Plunkitt describes as honest graft is "using inside knowledge to profit from city construction projects."
Plunkitt and Boss Tweed achieved great power through political corruption.
This political machine was based on corrupt practices. Too much money and concessions were given to maintain its political power. The political machine had a big influence in the Democratic political circles and dominated New York City from the mid-1800s to 1934.

Explanation:
In what way did Roosevelt most likely warrant the criticism contained in the
excerpt?
O A. Roosevelt promoted the establishment of the FDIC and the SEC in
order to secure the monetary holdings in banks and to provide
oversight for the stock market.
O B. Roosevelt introduced a Court-packing plan to add justices to the
Supreme Court in order to counterbalance the pro-business
justices who were already serving.
O C. Roosevelt declared a bank holiday to prevent bank runs and
supported legislation to put banks under the supervision of the
Department of the Treasury.
D. Roosevelt established the Civilian Conservation Corps and the
Works Progress Administration to put Americans to work around
the nation.
The correct answer is B) Roosevelt introduced a Court-packing plan to add justices to the Supreme Court in order to counterbalance the pro-business justices who were already serving.
Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the excerpt or the text. Where is it? Without the excerpt, we can only research for some information that can have sense.
So, taking that into consideration we can say that the way Roosevelt most likely warranted the criticism contained in the excerpt is "Roosevelt introduced a Court-packing plan to add justices to the Supreme Court in order to counterbalance the pro-business justices who were already serving."
Franklin D. Roosevelt’s court-packing plan sought to change the makeup of the Supreme Court by expanding the nine-member Court with up to six more judges.
Rosevelt announced his intention to expand the Supreme Court with six more members to have 15. The announcement was made on February 5, 1937. The Bill's name was The Judicial Procedures Reform Bill of 1937, and Rosevelt’s main goal was to obtain the support of the Supre Court for his New Deal program. The Bill was never voted.
3. What powers did Hamilton think that
Congress should have?
