Question 4 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 2

According to Kennedy, how will his New Frontier program be different from Roosevelt’s New Deal? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
It will call on people of the US to act instead of acting for them.
B
It will challenge people of the US instead of protecting them.
C
It will appeal to the security of the people of the US instead of their patriotism.
D
It will make a promise to people of the US instead of challenging them.

Explanation

Kennedy presented the New Frontier as a call for Americans to take action and meet challenges, rather than expecting the government to act on their behalf. Thus, it would call on people to act and challenge them, rather than simply protect them. The choice about appealing to security instead of patriotism does not fit, and a promise instead of a challenge reverses Kennedy’s message.
