Which of the following best describes elizabeth cady stanton and susan b. anthony? a. two women who formed the national woman suffrage association b. the first two american women to hold national elected office c. two women who formed the american woman suffrage association d. the first two american women to vote legally in a national election

Correct  A. Two women who formed the National Woman Suffrage Association.

Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton both were involved in starting the American Equal Rights Association in 1866.  The constitution of the American Equal Rights Association (AERA) stated the organization's purpose:  "to secure Equal Rights to all American citizens, especially the right of suffrage, irrespective of race, color or sex."  The AERA ended up splitting up over the amount of effort devoted to women's suffrage.  Anthony and Stanton and other women with them urged that support for the 15th Amendment (which would give voting rights to men of all races) should be withheld unless the amendment also would give voting rights to women.  They believed voting rights for blacks and women should be pursued simultaneously, and formed the National Woman Suffrage Association to further their advocacy for women's voting rights.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
