Richard Nixon’s victory in the Election of 1968 was made possible by what shift in voting behaviors?

Question 2 options:

Southern whites were increasingly voting Democrat, mainly due to issues surrounding foreign affairs.

White wage-earners from both the North and South were increasingly voting Republican instead of Democrat.

Young adults failed to turn out to vote, and as a result, liberal candidates experienced a lack of support.

African Americans turned on the Johnson administration and predominantly voted Republican.

B. White wage earners from both the North and South were increasingly voting Republican instead of Democrat

Explanation: Nixon campaigned on a platform designed to reach the majority of middle class and working class Americans from both the North and South. He promised to unify the country and many Americans, weary after years of antiwar and civil rights protests, looked forward to an era of peace.

The Democratic foreign policy didn't help matters as this had led to what appeared to be absolute futility and agony in Vietnam. The American people, desperate to find a way out of the Vietnam problem, were ready to give the Republican an opportunity to make good on his campaign promises.

option d is correct. corroborated sources of historical evidence   is necessary to validate a claim about an event in history.

historians tend to use written sources, but audio and visual materials as well as artifacts are important objects that supply information to modern historians.

historical sources are usually divided into two categories: primary and secondary sources. depending on the historian's intent, some sources shift their designation. determining what type of sources toimplement, and the level of credibility and reliability of those sources, is a significant step in critical thinking for the historian.

explanation:

- "the civil rights movements"

- "following the american civil war and abolition of slavery, the united states entered a period known as reconstruction, during which black americans continued to suffer from disenfranchisement, racial segregation, and economic oppression. beginning in the early 1950's, black americans launched a series of major campaigns of civil resistance, emphasizing the need for nonviolent protests and civil disobedience."

"such as the montgomery bus boycott of 1955-56, a campaign launched by rosa parks against the policy of racial segregation of the public transit system in alabama. “sit-ins” became popular across the american south, particularly in greensboro, north carolina, increase national sentiment."

- "the counterculture movement"

- "counterculture began to develop in the united states following the rise of conformity in american culture during the 1950s. by 1963, youth, particularly those of the white middle class, began rejecting the cultural standards and normality of their parents, opting for progressive attitudes instead. the movement gained momentum as the civil rights movement became increasingly successful and as the u.s. military intervention of vietnam began to take a negative turn."

"hippie counterculture moved further into popular culture following the summer of love in 1967 when thousands of people came together in the haight-ashbury neighborhood of san francisco. along with greenwich village in new york city, haight-ashbury became a hub for the counterculture movement."
