What did Indians dream of when they were exposed to European ideas of democracy and equality?

the main reason that the constitution did not proclaim all men to be free and equal is because of the issue of slavery.

the progressive era is a period of widespread social activism and political reform across the united states that spanned from the 1890s to the 1920s.[1] the main objectives of the progressive movement were eliminating problems caused by industrialization, urbanization, immigration, and political corruption.

the movement primarily targeted political machines and their bosses. by taking down these corrupt representatives in office, a further means of direct democracy would be established. they also sought regulation of monopolies (trust busting) and corporations through antitrust laws, which were seen as a way to promote equal competition for the advantage of legitimate competitors.

many progressives supported prohibition of alcoholic beverages, ostensibly to destroy the political power of local bosses based in saloons, but others out of a religious motivation. at the same time, women's suffrage was promoted to bring a "purer" female vote into the arena.a third theme was building an efficiency movement in every sector that could identify old ways that needed modernizing, and bring to bear scientific, medical and engineering solutions; a key part of the efficiency movement was scientific management, or "taylorism".

the answer is   b. coronado.

the correct answer is "ethnic heritage".

a person's ethnicity can influence a lot the way he/she votes.

in the united states, for example, black people tend to vote democratic. it happens because the society builds a strong division among people, and equals tend to mingle and support equals. black people's votes in a whole will most certaintly lean towards a candidate or a party which supports the fight against racism.
