I had doubts for about 30 problems, but it seems that those doubts are [mostly] cleared. ;p

I recall two questions regarding the Reagan administration, one of them asking for his main support from the 1980[?] election. (which I thought was the New Right, wikipedia ftw ;x)

for the bacon's rebellion question, the question asked for the most important consequence or something, so even though the royal governor one might be true, the race one was a better answer. it established race as what determined social class and that was a more long term consequence....

or atleast thats what i thought...

and i don't get why using race was the correct answer for bacon's rebellion, weren't they all white (and from great britain). in fact bacon was nobility, poor nobility, but not nobility (and thus related to other nobility) nonetheless.

did the romantic landscape answer also include something about wealthy patrons?

and i'm also still not quite sure about the question about the election of 1860.

i choose, the winner carried only the north (its not true lincoln carried cali and oregon), but the only other (seemingly) logical choice was that the winner didnt carry the electoral vote (which lincoln did) does anyone else remember?

The race question is true because after bacon died the governor used all of his power to kill the remaining supporters and established a firm hierarchy. Thats how that one is true.

The Lowell question it was women not immigrants who were hired... then when the immigrants began to arrive the Lowell system proved ineffective and thus suffered a collapse.

and the reason for the Bacon's rebellion is that it was racial because of the increased import of slaves due to indentured servants being viewed as dangerous and thus consolidating power of the classes

Dawes Act = indians

And Lincoln wasn't even on the southern ballot, but now that I think about it, he might not of only recieve votes from the north; some might have come from the west...ah well.

I recall also a question which asked what protective tariffs would do to a country.

I put something along the lines of it increases the prices of domestic and imported products.

i think i put that one too. For the largest source of revenue, was it land sale and something else, or was tariff with another choice?

For the Lowell Mill question, I thought I remembered my textbook saying something about how the factory owners wanted to control the moral environment of their female workers, and this is what Wiki says:

"Lowell Mill Girls" was the name used for female textile workers in Lowell, Massachusetts in the 19th century. The Lowell textile mills employed a workforce which was about three quarters female; this characteristic (unique at the time) caused two social effects: a close examination of the women's moral behavior, and a form of labor agitation.

How about the question about all of the following benifited states rights (something along the lines) Except:
A. Hartford Convention
B. McCollough vs Maryland
C. Nullification
D. VA and KT Resolutions

It's either A or B but I picked the supreme court case.
