<p>Yeah acacia. ^^ Too bad no one knew that one off the top of their head. </p>
<p>Just for fun:
What does Chicago mean? </p>
<p>And really:</p>
<p>What was the Truman Doctrine and where the first application of it?</p>
<p>the nullification crisis followed the tariff of abominations which raised the tax A LOT. angered a lot of people in the south..I think the tariff affected them more or somehting. anyhow south carolina threatened to secede..and Jacksons vice Calhoun wrote the South Caroline Exposition anonymously (man hard word) and then when they found out it was him Jackson got him booted</p>
<p>=) thats all I remember...</p>
<p>wait I just answered my own question...I'm an idiot</p>
<p>this is totally off topic but acacia, is that your real first name cause that's my name to! I haven't met many other ppl with that name.</p>
<p>no it isn't! haha I actually got it from online or something (it's also a tree...so maybe from there). When I was pondering what to use as my username I saw the word and liked it...because it kinda looks like a palendrome</p>
<p>Here's the deal with tariffs in general: the South traditionally always hated tariffs, because the South was more agricultural. Their best customers were usually Europeans (namely, the British during the industrial revolution who needed more cotton), and tariffs restricted this type of international trade.</p>
<p>The industrial North, on the other hand, wanted to ensure that their products were not crowded out by cheaper European products, so they consistently pushed the increase of the tariff.</p>
<p>Truman Doctrine was in March, 1947 and it did not favor communism. It pledged to support those who resisted communism and primarily concerned Turkey & Greece. BOOYAH. At least I know something. :(</p>
<p>Who said the following quote:
Let Southern oppressors tremble . . . . I shall strenously contend for immediate enfranchisement . . . . I will be as harsh as truth and as uncompromising as justice.</p>
<p>The South was really angry because the tarrif helped the North, but harmed the South. This is because the South didn't produce industrial manufactured goods, so it needed to get such things from overseas or the north, but the would-be-cheap overseas goods were extremely expensive because of the tariff, so that had to buy the northern goods, which helped the northern economy because they basically controlled the south...</p>
<p>...or something. XD</p>
<p>oh! well that's cool. Yea, I get a lot of jokes because it's tree :-), plus my last names beach so my whole name is a tree (except it should be beech!)</p>
<p>lincoln?
....</p>
<p>No, it was the same guy who said "I WILL BE HEARD"! He was so radical in his quest for freedom of the Blacks.</p>
<p>Nah, too radical for Lincoln. Umm, guessing: </p>
<p>William Lloyd Garrison? </p>
<p>He was a fruitcake. :D</p>
<p>wow this is getting messy</p>
<p>chicago means... something to do with onions. ah, second grade illinois school system education, i have failed you!</p>
<p>to sarorah: garrison </p>
<p>serious question: who is senator sumner of massachusetts and how is he related to the conflicts over slavery?</p>
<p>question for my fellow american-pageant sufferers: which president liked to skinny dip in the potomac river?</p>
<p>Sumner (abolition) got caned by Brooks (pro-slavery). Made ppl mad, and stuff. :-/</p>
<p>Second question: i remember reading that, but I can't remember who it was...TR, maybe?</p>
<p>Hey, just a request. Could you guys label each post with the first line as the original question?</p>
<p>It's a bit confusing wading through the posts and figuring out which is which.</p>
<p>And, this would be the worst time to get Doctrines and Treaties mixed up!</p>
<p>JQA for the second question. That stupid book and its random facts!
I know the first one has to do with Bleeding Kansas/Bleeding Sumner. Something with popular sovereignty..and how Sumner was hit with a cane. My memory is failing me..</p>
<p>Oh, I was right!</p>
<p>Chicago is "stinking onion"</p>
<p>Sumner was very outspoken on the issue off slavery and was beaten with a cane by...erm..I forget who. And, erm, his first name was Charles. XD</p>
<p>Aha, JimmyEatWorld, that's who it was: Brooks!</p>
<p>Hehe, I have that book too. I think it's funny though. XD</p>
<p>And sure, we can label them. ^^</p>
<p>Maybe we could number our questions? Not necessarily in numerical order. Just assign your question a random number, and when replying to a question, address it by the number.</p>
<p>Alright, we need a good answer for Bleeding Sumner. :p
And yes, you were right Emmery. I got it from an MC question in the 2001 test.
Can we get a good answer and then start the numbering/quoting of questions?</p>
<p>Hm... that would be okay, except we'll definitely have repetition of numbers.</p>
<p>I think a quick highlight, copy, paste of the original question would be most efficient</p>
<p>Bold the question or quote it maybe?</p>
