Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:  Revealed that government officials had misled Congress and the American people about the war.

Explanation:

Daniel Ellsberg was the military analyst who leaked "The Pentagon Papers" to the American press in 1971, revealing top secret information about US planning and decision-making in regard to the Vietnam War.  

The Vietnam War had a major impact in shifting public opinion toward distrust of government.  During the Vietnam War, a major credibility gap  became apparent in regard to what the government was telling the American public vs. what was actually taking place.  The term "credibility gap" was used by journalists who questioned the optimistic picture that the Lyndon Johnson administration painted regarding how the war was going, when investigative reporting showed a much more negative reality.

The credibility gap grew especially apparent when the Pentagon Papers (classified documents) were leaked to the press in 1971, showing that the government indeed had been deceiving the public about the plans and conduct of the war over the years.

Humanism put the focus on people, and not the religious beliefs of them, this heavily influenced the Renaissance, as people allowed themselves to do more things. They now did things for themselves, and not because their religion required them to. This can be seen in the changes that were made, such as art becoming more popular, and inventions that made it easier for people to live and work.

I believe the answer is: "It legitimized the power of the national government over states

The case of McCulloch vs. Maryland revolve around the taxation fee that the state of Maryland gave to McCulloch by using the state power to tax any business within its borders.

McCulloch refuse that payment since he already paid his taxes to the Federal government, and the court ruled out that the national government has a supremacy over the states and protect McCulloch from paying his taxes twice.
