yes this is true, 3rd party candidates barely ever win elections especially in the united states where more independents win than 3rd party candidates. The only times the 3rd parties won vastly were when they took the identity of a fallen major party (ex: republican (wig), democrat (Democratic Republicans)).
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
they rarely win elections because they're parties that aren't democratic or republican. these two political parties dominate elections because of how many supporters there are. since third parties don't have a legitimate chance of winning, they influence national politics by forcing the major political parties to address new problems they wouldn't have normally thought about. they can also take away some of the votes that otherwise could have went for the major parties.

The president has nominated a new federal judge, but the Senate has not yet approved the appointment. It seems unlikely that the Senate will vote to confirm the new judge. When the Senate goes on a holiday break, the president appoints the judge without the Senate's approval.
Answer: President should not be able to take such action
Explanation:
The United States Constitution provides for the Separation of Powers and Checks and Balances amongst the three branches of the Federal Government so that one branch will not have unchecked power. One instance of this is the appointment of a Supreme Court Justice.
For a person to be appointed as a Supreme Court Justice, the president needs to nominate them for the role. Once they are nominated they are then vetted by the Senate to ensure that they are a good fit for this very important role. The Senate will then vote on the appointment and the person can become a Supreme Court Justice by a majority of votes.
It is therefore not possible that the president can appoint the Judge in this question as a Supreme Court Justice without the approval of the Senate. This breaches the Separation of Powers principle and so will not stand.
Identify the event which ended the Indian resistance to westward expansion.
A)
The Battle of Little Big Horn
B)
The Massacre of Wounded Knee
o
Ghost Dance
D)
Battle of Dead Buffalo Lake
Answer:The massacre at Wounded Knee
Explanation: The massacre at Wounded Knee, during which soldiers of the US Army 7th Cavalry Regiment indiscriminately slaughtered hundreds of Sioux men, women, and children, marked the definitive end of Indian resistance to the encroachments of white settlers.
Both the British and the Americans frequently used horseback riders to carry messages, and both sides tried to capture the riders and get the messages. The rider who lost one of Washington's important messages was Tallmadge himself. It happened when Tallmadge and some of his men were attacked by British troops near the Connecticut–New York border. Tallmadge escaped unharmed but lost a saddlebag full of secret papers.
Luckily, Tallmadge's code did not fall into British hands. But among the papers was a letter from Washington in which he carelessly gave the name and address of an agent, George Higday, saying that he was a man who would probably "convey intelligence to me." Higday was arrested, but he had managed to destroy all evidence of spying. That move probably saved him from hanging.
Which statement best expresses the central idea of the excerpt?
Answer: Losing secret papers to the enemy could have serious consequences.
Explanation:
The central idea here is that when secret papers are lost to the enemy, they could have serious consequences. This is why the both the British and the Americans tried to capture riders conveying messages for the other side so that they could get the messages.
If these messages were found, they could help in the war effort by implicating spies such as George Higday who would be put to death should evidence be found of their treachery. This would be good for the side that was being spied on as less information would be leaked and bad for the other side as they will have less information to act on.
Answer:
B. Giving up information could be a disaster for either side.

How did the Nile and crop influence egyptian religion?
Answer:
the Nile river is thought of to be one of the prime factors the ancient Egyptian civilization strived for the thousands of years that it did. Egyptians believed the river was a blessing, as it provided the people with everything they needed each time the annual flooding seson came about: excellent soil to grow crops, a new transportation method via long wooden boats, bathing water and more. Ever since king Menes united upper and lower Egypt together to form the set of cultures and beliefs we know today from the country, Egyptians have always praised the Nile. And of course, this society believed there was a god for everything that blessed them. This is where Hapi comes in; god of the Nile floodings. The symbol Egyptians associated with Hapi in their religion was the lotus (which represented birth in the ancient Egyptian religion), as the shape of the river in northern Egypt resembles the flower. The flooding of the Nile was also said to be named the Arrival of Hapi, which may symbolise birth since Hapi is shown to be wearing lotus flowers on his head.

If you were the Serbian king Peter,what and how would you reply to the threatining of Austro-Hungarian king and why?
Answer:
Explain:
I don’t think any self respecting monarch would’ve accepted the ultimatum. The demands were made to be rejected. This war was waiting to happen. If it had not happened in 1914, it might have started in 1915 or 1916. Earlier the respective powers avoided the 1909 Bosnian crisis but the conflict kept coming back again.
If the Serbian King had accepted the Austrian demands, he might have faced violent repression at home. The next ruler might have done something against Austro-Hungarian empire and that crisis might have started the war.

What influenced the way Americans got news about the war in 1914?
A. Most people in the United States read German newspapers.
B. The United States had no reporters in Europe.
C. The United States had no trade with Germany.
D. It was easier to receive British news.
During the War of 1914, it was easier to receive British news. This influenced the way Americans got news about the war in 1914. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
What happened during 1914?The Great War, generally known as World War I, began in 1914 with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. His assassination triggered a European war that lasted until 1918. Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, and the Ottoman Empire (the Central Powers) battled against the United Kingdom, France, Russia, Italy, Romania, Canada, Japan, and the United States (the Allied Powers) during the war.
The year 1914 was significant to the globe because it marked the beginning of globe War I. During this time, word of the conflict was flowing over the world, and Germany, the country responsible for World conflict I, also sent news. It was, however, easier for Americans to receive British news than German news because of the language barrier.
Therefore, option D is appropriate, as the American people read more British news than German news.
