ReplyDelete2. The most important amendment to the American people is probably the 14th Amendment because it states that EVERYBODY is a citizen. That race, religion, etc. doesn't matter.
3. The 15th Amendment was probably the amendment that changed the course of things. It states that the government laws override the state's laws. It says that EVERY person is allowed to vote, the states can't choose. This amendment made a lot of people angry, I bet.
1. My score was 2 out of 10.

3. The 15th Ammendment stands out to me in the lesson of 17-2 because it talks all about how everyone has the right to vote.
1.) Four out of ten..
ReplyDelete2.) I believe the 14th amendment is the most important to the people because it states that EVERYONE, no matter who you are, you are a citizen if you were born in the U.S. or if you were naturalized.
3.) I believe the 15th Amendment was more important to people because it let African Americans vote, which many didn't like, but it helped republicans. Also, it made African Americans feel more like citizens.
1. My score what 7.
ReplyDelete2. I think the Fourteenth Amendment is the best because it focuses on equal rights.
3. I think the Reconstruction Amendment on voting was important because black and white men are equal so each should be allowed to vote.
1. 8/10 80%
ReplyDelete2. The 22th because I think that people that have power for to long might let it go to there head and tri to take total control.
3. The right about being a citizen in America is important because it is the best country in the world.
1. I got 30%
ReplyDelete2. the #25 says the president can only serve 8 years in office. because if it wasn't there a president could be in office till they die.
3.#15 because it tells that it doesn't matter what race you are you can vote.
1.I got seven out of ten on the test.
ReplyDelete2.I think the most important amendment is the 13th one was the most important because it kind of started the amendments to take action and to have equal rights.
3.The most important reconstructed amendment was the one that made the black people be able to have the right to vote.
1. My score was 5/10.
ReplyDelete2. I think that the 24th Amendment was important to the American people because it just further implied the need that all people were equal and that everyone had the right to vote.
3. The 14th really stands out to me as the most important because it states who is considered a citizen. It also prohibits someone who worked for the Confederacy's government to hold an office for the USA. However, I do not understand how the debt of the Confederacy is illegal.
1. I got 3 out of 10...
ReplyDelete2. I think personally the most important amendment to America was probably the 14th, because it tells that everyone no matter what race or income or anything doesn't matter! You are a human and you will and SHOULD have rights!
3. I would think that it would be the 15th because it have everyone the right to vote and that the government can't completely decide everything.
1. I got 9/10 90% (I guessed a lot)
ReplyDelete2. I think that the 14th amendment is the most important to the U.S. it states that anyone born in the U.S. is a United Sates citizen, religion, race, and beliefs does not matter.
3. I think the 13th is the most important in this case because blacks could possibly still be enslaved.
1. My score was 4 out of 10.
ReplyDelete2. The amendment that states that everyone is equal and has equal rights. That everyone must be treated equally as a citizen by the state and Congress. This amendment is so important to the American citizen because it guarantees that everyone is to be treated the same.
3. The amendment that stands out to me the most is the fifteenth amendment. The amendment states that only the government has the right to allow people to vote, and not the states. The states can't deny anyone the right to vote. This amendment stands out because it probably caused an up rising that would have changed the turn out. And gave the government the rights and not the states.
1. I got 3/10 on the quiz...:(
ReplyDelete2. I believe that the 25th is the most important. I think this let's other presidents have a chance in office to make new improvements the other president may not have thought of, also, if some people don't like the current president, they know that 8 years is the maximum that a certain president can be in office.
3. I believe the 14th is the most important. This law gives everyone equal protection. If it was anyone's choice, some people would not give blacks the right protection. This law will ensure that such things wouldn't happen. everyone deserves the same rights until they are proven unworthy. I think...
1. 7 out of 10
ReplyDelete2. Amendment #14 is the most important because it states that everyone is equal and treated the same as one citizen.
3. Amendment #15 because is says that everyone has the right to vote.
1. I got 6/10...;)
ReplyDelete2. I think the 15th is the most important because it allows former slaves and African American men to vote. It will lead they way for other races to vote then to allowing women to vote...very important!
3. I feel like the 14th is the most important because it says that everyone has the right to be protected and allowed all of the rights meant for them.
1. My score is 2 out of 10
ReplyDelete2. I think that the 14th amendment is definitely the most important because everyone should be treated equal. Nobody should be judged by their race.
3. The one where it says a president can only be president for a certain amount of time is important because it gives everyone a fair shake at it.
