    5. Van Buren, squired into office by the close popular vote but by the comfortable margin of 170 to 124 votes (for all the Whigs combined) in the Electoral College N. Big Woes for the “Little Magician” 1. Martin Van Buren, eighth president, was the first to be born under the American flag 2. An accomplished strategist and spoils man—the “wizard of Albany”—he was also a statesman of wide experience in both legislative and administrative life 3. From the outset the new president labored under sever handicaps a. As a machine-made candidate, he incurred the resentment of many Democrats—those who objected to having a “bastard politician” smuggled into office behind Jackson b. Mild-mannered Martin Van Buren seemed to rattle in the military boots of his testy predecessor; the people felt let down and Van Buren inherited the Jackson’s enemies c. Van Buren’s four years overflowed with toil and trouble; a rebellion in Canada in 1837 stirred up ugly incidents along the northern frontier and threatened to trigger war with Britain; the president attempted to play a neutral game d. The antislavery agitators in the North were in full cry; among other grievances, they were condemning the prospective annexation of Texas; worst of all, Jackson bequeathed to Van Buren the makings of a searing depression—hard times ordinarily blight the reputation o the president and Van Buren was no exception O. Depression Doldrums and the Independent Treasury 1. The panic of 1837 was a financial sickness of the times; its basic cause was rampant speculation prompted by a mania of get-rich0quickism—gamblers in western land s were doing a “land-office business” on borrowed capital, much of it the shaky currency of “wildcat banks”—the speculative craze spread to canal, roads, railroads, and slaves 2. But speculation alone did not cause the crash; Jacksonian finance, including the Bank War and the Specie Circular, gave an additional jolt to an already teetering structure a.

    20.Pakistan defined itself in terms of religion, fell under the control of military leaders, andsaw its Bengali-speaking eastern section secede to become the independent nation of Bangladesh in 1971. India, a secular republic with a 90 percent Hindu population,inherited a larger share of industrial and educational resources and was able to maintainunity despite its linguistic heterogeneity.30.In Southeast Asia, the defeats that the Japanese inflicted on the British, French, andDutch forces in World War II set an example of an Asian people standing up to Europeancolonizers. In the post-war period nationalist movements led to the independence of Indonesia (1949), Burma and the Malay Federation (1948), and the Philippines (1946.)B0.The Struggle for Independence in Africa10.The postwar French government was determined to hold on to Algeria, which had asubstantial French settler population, vineyards, and oil and gas fields. An Algerian revoltthat broke out in 1954 was pursued with great brutality by both sides, but ended Frenchwithdrawal and Algerian independence in 1962.20.None of the several wars for independence in sub-Saharan Africa matched the Algerianstruggle in scale. But even without war, the new states suffered from a variety of problems including arbitrarily drawn borders, overdependence on export crops, lack of national road and railroad networks, and overpopulation.30.Some of the politicians who led the nationalist movements devoted their lives to riddingtheir homelands of foreign occupation. Two examples are Kwame Nkrumah, theindependence leader and later president of Ghana and Jomo Kenyatta, who negotiated theindependence and became first president of the Republic of Kenya.40.The African leaders in the sub-Saharan French colonies were reluctant to call for independence because they realized that some of the colonies had bleak economic prospects and because they were aware of the importance of the billions of dollars of French public investment.…

    Hello, fellow coworkers my name is Vanessa Williams and I will be presenting you with information regarding a vulnerable population. The vulnerable population I will discuss is the African American population and their perceived mistrust with the healthcare system. I believe this is an important topic to discuss because the African American population has the highest incidence of colorectal cancer however, they are not seeking healthcare as they should. We have often questioned why these individuals do not seek healthcare as often, however, we never really took the time out to identify the reasons why. It gives me great honor to be able to enlighten you regarding this population. By the end of this presentation, I hope you are all culturally aware and gain confidence when caring for this vulnerable population. I believe you will able to walk away with new knowledge that you will be able to apply to our work environment,…

    Politically, there are efforts to centralize secular and religious power. The Holy Roman Emperor is the secular power in Europe, and the Catholic Pope is the religious power. They have a love-hate relationship. To complicate matters, as in the other medieval sacred states (e.g., Muslim and Chinese), the warrior aristocrats retaining landed power from the Classical Empires refuse to give that power up and contest the centralizing efforts. Remember that we find a three-way power struggle…
