June 2006 - US History

<p>No one will ever know..lol</p>

<p>How many do you think you guys missed? I really hope I just get over 700, hopefully over 720 dude</p>

<p>med786 u are one crazy dude......when the answers come back we'll see the right answer and for now just chill man......(btw im still sticking by my army answer) and for those who said casualties, russia had an insanely huge population and their army could still fight thats how a bipolar world order formed....immediatly after world war two the army was an immediate threat because of eastern european situation(soviets were monitoring and controlling elections there) and japan(someone said stalin didn't want to go....he hella wanted to go and he got truman to come to a date where he could come in and assist the americans but before that date truman dumped the atomic bombs on them</p>

<p>I think it will be the exact same. I don't think they change the curves for SAT IIs.</p>

<p>truman dumping the atomic bombs is stilling during the War</p>

<p>immediatly after the war the situation was still like that concerning eastern european nations</p>

<p>shiva, i respect you and your posts, so dont take this the wrong way. </p>

<p>Can you provide a website, quote from a book, etc. that supports this. </p>

<p>I have provided about 7 examples indicated nuclear threat.</p>

<p>Also can you help me clear something up?</p>

<p>Did the question say "what was the greatest percieved threat", or did it just say "what was the greatest threat" </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Respectfully,</p>

<p>MED</p>

<p>Wasn't it something like...What did the US perceive as the greatest threat immediately following WW2. I'm guessing the word "immediately" is very critical in answering this question...yet both sides seem to have relevant points indicatoring that their answer choice is correct.</p>

<p>How Many Can You Skip And Get It Wrong To Get 700???</p>

<p>ok....THANK YOU</p>

<p>The question used the word PERCIEVE</p>

<p>It didnt directly ask what the greatest threat was. The army may have been the greatest threat, but the greatest [[[[[[[[[[PERCIEVED]]]]]]]]] was NUCLEAR MISSILE HEADS = ballistic missiles. </p>

<p>I would be the first to concede that I am wrong, however I strong believe I am correct.</p>

<p>Oh my god....for the last time, the Soviets did not have ballistic missiles until the late 50's, after truman's term. Truman was afraid the Russians would use their army to take Berlin and the rest of Europe. MED, I know we had a big fight last night, but please research this more. The Soviets did not even construct a nuke for at least 5+ years after the end of WWII and they relied on bombers to deliver them until the late 50's. The ballistic missile choice is inconceivable. Truman WAS afraid of Russians getting the bomb, but not of them getting missiles, because even we didn't have those yet. Eisenhower was the first to worry about that.</p>

<p>THE QUOTE QUESTION- The one that said something like "the majority rule will not result in tyranny because there is so many viewpoints" THAT WAS JACKSON- He was all for more democracy and pushed for voting rights for all white men regardless of property- 100% sure it was Jackson, not madison (who was one of the ones who was afraid of majority rule) or the antifederalists (who did not want the central government at all).</p>

<p>And as for Hamilton- The answer was something like "he wanted to get as money people involved in the developing economy as possible"- this is why he made it so people had to buy bonds and such. Hamilton did not necessarily want a strong economy, and in fact he wanted to keep some debts. He simply wanted to get it going and make it credible and well founded.</p>

<p>thank u charchazwick.......that is exactly correct.......we felt we were invincible because we had the A bomb the soviets did not explode theirs until 5 years later or something like that....the greatest threat percieved or real was still the army but char im not sure u quoted the question rite for the second one</p>

<p>LMAO...are you even serious. Of course Jackson extending universal male suffrage. But voting has nothing to do WITH TYRNNY. And the quote was nothing about majority rule. It said something to the effect of, with so many people in the government, there is little room for tyranny. The quote even stated something about a strong centralized government. Madison was ALL FOR THE CENTRALIZED GOVERMENT. He wrote the federalist papers HAHAHAHAHAHAHA</p>

<p>Did you even read what I wrote you retard? The quote WAS defending majority rule - and they DID say that it would not result in tyranny because there are so many viewpoints and factions. Are you that thick? And I said Madison was afraid of majority- not that we was afraid of the central government- learn to read. Madison wanted an electoral college. Im aware of the federalists papers, and probably got a higher score on this test than you did. So shut your mouth.</p>

<p>"not madison (who was one of the ones who was afraid of majority rule) or the antifederalists (who did not want the central government at all)." Way to completely misinterpret what I said you chimp.</p>

<p>and the question said "percieved". The very notion that collegeboard used the word percieved indicates something. They could have simply said " what was the greatest threat to the United States following WWII". However, they used percieved to indicate that actual threat may not have existed. This may be confusing and it sounds queer, but think about it.</p>

<p>um lets find more questions instead of arguing. We will see who is right when we get our scores. I am hoping for a 700, but I doubt I will get that since my AP history teacher sucked. :( Would 10 blanks and 14-15 wrong get you a 700?</p>

<p>MED, if they had had atomic bombs as one of the questions, that would have been ok, but they didn't. They asked about the years directly following WWII, not the 50's. Your arguments are nothing short of ridiculous.</p>

<p>So, Pike remembers too. I am 100% sure it was JACKSON.</p>

<p>strong goverment; protection against tryanny; large amount of people; centralization = madison = federalist = owned</p>

<p>Nowhere did it mention majority rule. douchebag</p>

<p>Exactly- Thats What I Said!</p>

<p>FOR THE LAST TIME MED- The person who was quoted was talking about how tyranny would not result from everyone voting. Jackson would agree with this, and therefore that is the answer. I only mentioned madison and the antifederalists because they were answer choices and I was telling everyone how they would not agree with the quote. Do you understand now idiot?</p>

<p>Can you please just leave? You've brought nothing but laughable, unfounded, and low remarks and arguments to this discussion.</p>

<p>hey hey! inappropriate usage of the word douchebag.</p>

<p>play nice children.</p>

<p>Not my fault this guy knows nothing about history and has a short temper.</p>
