The 1965 Voting Rights Act enabled the Justice Department, under certain circumstances, to send federal officers into communities to register voters. This policy is which of the following:Group of answer choicesinconsistent with Madison's proposed national veto over objectionable state lawsunconstitutional pursuant to the Fourteenth Amendmentan ineffective solution to an unsolvable problemperfectly consistent with Madison's proposed national veto over objectionable state laws
Answer: perfectly consistent with Madison's proposed national veto over objectionable state laws
Explanation:
James Madison believed that the Federal Government through Congress, should have the right to veto objectionable state laws so that states would not get away with doing whatever they want in areas the Constitution was lacking.
The action by the 1965 Voting Rights Act described above is in line with this veto suggestion because it was passed mainly with the Southern States as these states had been limiting the rights of Black people to vote through some state legislature and intimidation. Justice officers being allowed to go into communities to register voters was to counteract this.
What was one of the challenges Richard Nixon faced as president?
winning over Wallace supporters
restoring American confidence
uniting the Republican Party
enacting a social reform agenda
Answer:
Restoring American confidence.
Explanation:
Richard Nixon became the 37th President of the United States from 1969-74. His presidency was a huge turning point in America's domestic front as the country was divided in the case of the Vietnam war, while women's rights activists were pressing for equality and racism was also prevalent, leading to more issues than enough.
While these issues prevailed, the next president is sure to be met with the task of trying to find a possible solution. So, one challenge of Richard Nixon's presidency is to restore the confidence of the American people in the face of the division regarding the involvement of America in the Vietnam war.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Answer:
b restoring American confidence

What were the reasons for Israel’s loss of enthusiasm in rebuilding the Temple? Also, what was the importance for believers to remain focused on the Lord and His plans for our lives while awaiting Christ’s second coming?
Answer:
Explanation:
The second temple was destroyed during a Jew uprising against the Roman Empire. The priests were massacred and many Jews banned to live inside Jerusalem. The Romans built a pagan temple at the original site.
The Christ's second coming is a key event that all Christians await as He will deliver the final judgement to all humans.
Answer:
Explanation:
After the failed Bar Kochba revolt, Romans prohibited Jews in Jerusalem and the re-construction of Second Temple stopped. In modern day, after Israel captured the entire Jerusalem in the Six-day War, there were discussions of rebuilding the Temple. But the area was considered disputed territory and rebuilding would need to be resolved with Palestinians. The rebuilding of the Temple is generally tied to Christ's second coming in in mainstream Orthodox Judaism.
