Answer 1

howdy!

b. securing african american rights and restoring the souths economy.

the reconstruction era following the american civil war aimed to address issues such as the rights and freedom of newly emancipated african americans, rebuilding the southern economy, and reintegrating the southern states into the union. it was not primarily about continuing manifest destiny, getting lincoln re-elected, or solely rebuilding the south, although rebuilding the south was certainly a significant aspect of the reconstruction.
