Answer:

Option (4) They did not want president Johnson to punish the south

Step-by-step explanation:

  • They did not want president Johnson to punish the south
  • The Radical Republicans believed that even the blacks were given the same political rights and opportunities as whites.
  • the first two years of Congressional Reconstruction saw Southern states rewrite their Constitutions and the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment. Congress seemed fully in control. President Johnson was taking of that particular region. Radical leaders employed an extraordinary Constitutional remedy to clear the impediment — Presidential impeachment.
