these two campaign posters give information about two candidates for the u. s. house of representatives.

there are two text boxes side by side. the first one reads do you want your representative to work for you vote maria gonzalez for u. s. house of representatives, 6 years in the state legislature, successful small business owner, opposes gun control, opposes raising taxes, committed to bringing jobs to the district. the second one reads we will work hard for you, vote elmer flint for u. s. house of representatives, 7 years on city council, 2 years on city planning commission, owns successful legal practice, supports gun control legislation to protect citizens, committed to increasing government programs for the needy, elmer takes his job seriously.

according to the information in the posters, why might a voter who lives on a fixed income be more likely to support elmer?

his experience on the city council
his experience as a lawyer
his support of gun-control legislation
his commitment to increase government assistance

during the debate over his landmark energy policy proposal, president jimmy carter failed to consult one of the most powerful senators, louisiana’s russell long, who would have a big say over whether the legislation moved through the upper chamber. this was classic carter. with a strong distaste for congressional politics, the president simply refused to do what most other presidents would consider routine, such as courting key senators. long became so irate with the president that when he was finally invited to a white house dinner, he stood up to ask a question and, before doing so, proceeded to sarcastically introduce himself: “i’m russell long, chairman of the senate finance committee.”

this interaction is a revealing moment in stuart e. eizenstat’s fascinating new history of carter’s presidency. the former peanut farmer from georgia was a president who, according to conventional wisdom, didn’t care much for party politics; nonetheless, in eizenstat’s view, carter’s legacy on domestic and foreign policy has been vastly underappreciated. the author paints carter as a “bold and determined” leader who bravely attacked the challenges of his time. eizenstat goes so far as to argue that carter might very well be the most successful one-term president in american history.
