ARGUMENT You are a magazine writer assigned to find out how people feel about the Populist Party. Write your article describing the support for and opposition to the party. (4-6 sentences).
Answer:
The People's Party, also known as the Populist Party or simply the Populists, was a left-wing[2] agrarian populist[3] late-19th-century political party in the United States. The Populist Party emerged in the early 1890s as an important force in the Southern and Western United States, but collapsed after it nominated Democrat William Jennings Bryan in the 1896 United States presidential election. A rump faction of the party continued to operate into the first decade of the 20th century, but never matched the popularity of the party in the early 1890s.
The Populist Party's roots lay in the Farmers' Alliance, an agrarian movement that promoted collective economic action by farmers, as well as the Greenback Party, an earlier third party that had advocated fiat money. The success of Farmers' Alliance candidates in the 1890 elections, along with the conservatism of both major parties, encouraged Farmers' Alliance leaders to establish a full-fledged third party before the 1892 elections. The Ocala Demands laid out the Populist platform: collective bargaining, federal regulation of railroad rates, an expansionary monetary policy, and a Sub-Treasury Plan that required the establishment of federally controlled warehouses to aid farmers. Other Populist-endorsed measures included bimetallism, a graduated income tax, direct election of Senators, a shorter workweek, and the establishment of a postal savings system. These measures were collectively designed to curb the influence of corporate and financial interests and empower small farmers and laborers.
In the 1892 presidential election, the Populist ticket of James B. Weaver and James G. Field won 8.5% of the popular vote and carried four Western states, becoming the first third party since the end of the American Civil War to win electoral votes. Despite the support of labor organizers like Eugene V. Debs and Terence V. Powderly, the party largely failed to win the vote of urban laborers in the Midwest and the Northeast. Over the next four years, the party continued to run state and federal candidates, building up powerful organizations in several Southern and Western states. Before the 1896 presidential election, the Populists became increasingly polarized between "fusionists", who wanted to nominate a joint presidential ticket with the Democratic Party, and "mid-roaders", like Mary Elizabeth Lease, who favored the continuation of the Populists as an independent third party. After the 1896 Democratic National Convention nominated William Jennings Bryan, a prominent bimetallist, the Populists also nominated Bryan but rejected the Democratic vice-presidential nominee in favor of party leader Thomas E. Watson. In the 1896 election, Bryan won much of the South and West but lost to Republican William McKinley.
After the 1896 presidential election, the Populist Party suffered a nationwide collapse. The party nominated presidential candidates in the three presidential elections after 1896, but none came close to matching Weaver's performance in 1892. Former Populist voters became inactive or joined another party. Other than Debs and Bryan, few politicians associated with the Populists retained national prominence.
Historians see the Populists as a reaction to the power of corporate interests in the Gilded Age, but they debate the degree to which the Populists were anti-modern and nativist. Scholars also continue to debate the magnitude of influence the Populists exerted on later organizations and movements, such as the progressives of the early 20th century. Most of the Progressives, such as Theodore Roosevelt, Robert La Follette, and Woodrow Wilson, were bitter enemies of the Populists. In American political rhetoric, "populist" was originally associated with the Populist Party and related left-wing movements, but beginning in the 1950s it began to take on a more generic meaning, describing any anti-establishment movement regardless of its position on the left–right political spectrum

i hope this makes you happy
The People's Party, commonly regarded as the Populist Party or just the Populists, was a late-nineteenth-century American left-wing agricultural populist political party.
The Farmers' Alliance, an agricultural organization that sought contribution to the economic activity by farm owners, as well as the Greenback Party, an older third party that championed fiat money, were the foundations of the Populist Party. Farmers' Alliance leaders were motivated by their candidates' success in the 1890 elections, as well as the conservatism of both main parties, to form a full-fledged third party well before 1892 elections.
The Populist combination of James B. Weaver with James G. Field gained 8.5 percent of the popular vote and four Parts of western in the 1892 presidential race, and became the first minor party to receive electoral college votes since the American Civil War ended.
Despite the assistance of labour activists such as Eugene V. Debs like Terence V. Powderly, the Democratic Party in the Northeast and Midwest mostly failed to gain the votes of urban workers.
Historians perceive the Populists as a response to the hegemony of corporate interests during the Gilded Age, but they disagree over how anti-modern and nativist the Populist politicians were.
Scholars continue to argue the extent to which the Populists influenced succeeding groups and movements, such as the early twentieth-century progressives.

Which justification would the Framers have used to support the creation of the Articles of Confederation?
(A) The British had large standing armies, so the Articles created a national military to protect the country.
(B) The colonist lived under a tyrannical rule of the Britsih so they decided to use an opposite model of government.
(C) The King suspended trial by jury so the colonists decided a judiciary was not needed when solving disputes between states.
(D) Parliament imposed taxes without the colonists consent, so the colonists created the Articles to pass taxes without citizens consent.
Answer:
B. The colonist lived under a tyrannical rule of the British so they decided to use an opposite model of government.
Explanation:
Under the Old British's system of government all the decisions in the country is centralized to a very small group of people (The King and his trusted advisers). This system make it really difficult for the people to resist the government when the decisions negatively impact the livelihood of the people.
Under the Articles of the Confederation, the Framers proposed that the new model of government should give the states with the power to regulate themselves without direct intervention from the Central government. By doing this, they hope that the central government wouldn't turned into a tyranny.

Answer:
hi :D
Explanation:
A tame animal is an animal that is relatively tolerant of human presence. Tameness may arise naturally (as in the case, for example, of island tameness) or due to the deliberate, human-directed process of training an animal against its initially wild or natural instincts to avoid or attack humans.

Did Canadians Create the country they wanted?
Explanation:
Probably not, and, maybe from my point of view, thank G-d.
Who's The We Here?
Canadians, in and of itself, doesn't mean much. Canada has been, since before Confederation, a set of social class, regional, racial, ethnic and religious groups fighting to advance their own interests. You could apply Uchronic (alternate history tests) to imagine what would have happened if certain other groups had won. Our indigenous peoples might have been in seventh heaven if all the invaders of their part of Turtle Island had gotten back on the boat and gone away.
Say the British had cut a different deal with the incipient Quebecois, when they conquered New France in 1763. How about, a devoutly Roman Catholic, francophone unit, coast to coast? Less politically correct Quebecois might admit to you that, that would have been very satisfactory. (Say Tabernac in Le Vancouver and everybody gets it!)
As a friend of mine in Edmonton used to say, “Money Talks and Bulls—t walks.” Actually, that is pretty much how Canada works in our own timeline, but say for the sake of a terrifying argument, during the Depression, Bible Bill Aberhart ends up convincing all of Canada of his vision, sort of like an earlier day Jason Kenney. Think of the extermination camps, the vicious German Shepherds, the summary executing of Homosexuals, Troublesome Native people and single Moms, and the humane euthanasia of the mentally disabled.
Or, what if us Jews got to be as clever at plotting as Bible Bill and some modern Albertans would like to say. Watch us abolish Anglo and French Canada in 1955, us attacking from somewhere in North Winnipeg. Nightclubs stay open until dawn, with special tax breaks for club owners and show girls. We impose the most comprehensive social safety net, ever, and put Sweden to shame. Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster, become, respectively, the Governor General and Prime Minister of Canada, for life. Men are admitted to drinking establishments only when accompanied by a woman, suitably attired in a slinky, film noir-type, outfit. Honest Ed Mirvish becomes Minister of Finance. We enforce new federal legislation, the Have Fun and Go Shopping Day Act. Local municipalities are required to promote casino licencing, every Canadian main street must offer Sunday Crazy Day shopping bargains, and you have to take your missus out for a good meal, chopped, chicken soup and latkes being mandatory on the menu. (UCP'ers, don't panic, I am just indulging myself on a quiet Sunday afternoon, in that anti-pipeline, anti-butch, den of iniquity, downtown Ottawa. However, Justin is just up the road from me, a ten minute walk to his headquarters, and, I know for a fact from our Ottawa grapevine, he is going to get you, and, definitely, bring you down, with the help of the Green Party!)
But, the real life, core denominators were the Fathers of Confederation, and the groups of people they represented. Their vision, a recreated, federal Scotland, with a sort of backward version of Normandy tacked on, is what they got, run by baronial types in the Montreal anglophone community and the up and coming, brash, Toronto. They sort of created the Canada they wanted, and made it stick, bits of sticky right up to today.
This year is the hundredth anniversary of the Winnipeg General Strike. The branch baronocracy of Winnipeg had gotten set itself set up, in the very poshest parts of a generally kind of dumpy Winnipeg. They were certainly getting the Winnipeg they wanted. A Manitoba political scientist could make a credible argument that they still largely do, after making a few concessions, like letting us into the Manitoba and Winnipeg Winter Clubs. Mostly, they still live in the same parts of town as in 1919, and their direct geographic extensions. (Wellington Crescent was the “it” street in classy Winnipeg. It still is. At the very western end, in the early part of the 1900's, some property developers established the town of Tuxedo, which is just what it sounds like. Until the late 1950's we weren't any more welcome there, than at the Manitoba Club.)
To a large extent, the Winnipeg General Strike was about us White Ethnics resisting the barony. We kept on resisting. Wellington Crescent really is a nice street, but I sure am glad we did.

13th Amendment - Freedom
What did the South do to Limit These Actions?
Answer:
The 13th Amendment supposedly ended chattel slavery in the South, but the South managed to limit these actions in the following ways. The 13th Amendment allows involuntary servitude if convicted of a crime, so this served as a loophole in the amendment. The Southern whites also created "black codes." This led to new types of offenses for not showing proper respect to white people or malicious mischief. However, these offenses could range from a felony to a misdemeanor. Therefore, several black people were wrongly convicted of "crimes."
