(HELP ASAP PLEASE) From the perspective of a member of the Republican Party who is running in your state for the US Senate in 1896, write a paragraph of a speech you will make to prospective voters. Think about the voters William Jennings Bryan wanted to reach and the voters William McKinley wanted to reach. Keep in mind what you know about the economic turmoil of the 1890s. Also think of everything you have learned in this tutorial about the nation’s wealth and industrialization. Your paragraph should tell voters: (1) what your position on the currency issue is, (2) what your reasons are for that position, (3) why they should vote for you and for your party. Refer to the list you made when you read William McKinley’s acceptance speech to refresh your memory about the Republican Party’s priorities.

Remember that you are not writing to express your own views. You are playing the role of a Republican Party candidate, and your paragraph should reflect the views that a Republican candidate would have in 1896.
