Madison wants to answer the research question “how did the vietnam war affect the politics of the united states in the 1970s? ” which would be the best source or combination of sources for her to use? interviews of older relatives in her family, some who fought in the war and others who did not several digital news articles and documentaries from the 1970s, plus a recent book on the topic one good recent book that answered her questions and reflected her own point of view two good books from the 1970s that offered opposing points of view on the subject

The correct answer is B) several digital news articles and documentaries from the 1970s, plus a recent book on the topic.

The best source of combination of sources for Madison to use in responding the question “How did the Vietnam War affect the politics of the United States in the 1970s?”, is several digital news articles and documentaries from the 1970s, plus a recent book on the topic.  

This is the best option because if Madison gets use of several news articles she is going to have many opportunities and versions of what happened in Vietnam. These different perspectives augment the possibility of being accurate in her answer. If she also gets the support of documentaries from the 1970s, she gets more information to be detailed. If she uses a recent book on the topic, she has an actual or updated fact that resulted from new investigations, interviews, and information with people that could not talk about the war at that time because they were working for the military or a government agency.  

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
