Trump protests and 1968 election?



So a lot of people are watching Trump and his campaign rally's in earnest because of the protest and turbulence they have been creating.  Yesterday I was reading an article that attempts to analyze the similarities between the protests at Donald Trump's recent rally's to Richard Nixon's 1968 run for President.  The article talks about how the "Black Lives Matter" group and the 1968 riots all had a influential impact on the outcome of the presidential election.

 I would like you to read the article, evaluate and list 5 similarities from the 1968 election year and the 2016 election year.  As an alternative you may write a 200 word comparison/contrast on the similarities/contrasts of the 1968 presidential election year and the 2016 election.

History students should also do the questions on page 837 #6-8.
