The Framers of the Constitution had doubts about government operations and how governments worked. They were inclined to think the governments (kings) take away power from the people. However, they understood that some type of system was necessary for a nation to function. The Framers needed to make sure the government did not have complete control of the people. Creating Federalism in the United States allowed the government to set rules and standards for citizens while keeping checks and balances on their own powers. The Framers wanted essentially, for the people to govern themselves by choosing the politicians that were in place to govern them. As well as having the option to decide if an elected official is not doing their job properly or governing the country properly.

Power to make treaties (what role does the Senate play?)- This allows the president to make treaties with foreign nations. The senate must approve these decisions with a ⅔ vote.

The Constitution of the United States of America all started at the Philadelphia Convention. Called by Alexander Hamilton, the purpose of this convention was to revise the Articles of Confederation. The reason for this is because the central government under this document was very weak, for rebellions were very difficult to put down (such as Shays’ Rebellion), Congress lacked the power to tax and have a standing army, and the state government was extremely overpowered (when compared to the central government). During the convention, the framers realized that this document was almost impossible to revise; it would be much easier to start from scratch. Without official permission from Congress, the framers began to rewrite an outline for the

Most internal meetings are formal and are pre- arranged and calendar invitations are sent through outlook normally by the line manager to the staff members whose attendance is needed, often there tends to be a fixed process as the line manager tends to have different topics to discuss with the team and an allocated amount of time is spent on these as to ensure that the meeting is structured. If the meeting is external, they tend to also be formal and emails are often sent to the external companies requesting their presence at the meeting, this email will also include formal arrangements for travel and/or accommodation if this is necessary. An example of this is when Chipside, which is the bespoke software used by the parking team crashes. Our line manager sends an email

To rectify the shortcomings of the Articles of Confederation, a constitutional convention created a federal system and built into it practical devices to control factions who would otherwise pursue their own ends to the detriment of the larger society. Those safeguards were representative government, three branches of government that contained checks and balances, and a federal system. The branches are similar in their organization with elected leaders, legislators and judges. However, some states appoint their judges while the President decides Supreme Court Judges. Also, most states have a bicameral legislature but one is unicameral. In the Legislative Branch there is the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate. There are many main differences between

The president of the United States of America has few constitutional powers in foreign policy. First, the president has the power to negotiate treaties with other nations. Second, the president has the power to mediate disputes between other nations. Third, the president has the power to proclaim friendships with new

If asked to redo the whole exercise there are quite a few areas which could be improved upon. Our team believed that we could achieve more if the tasks are judicially divided amongst all of us as per individual strengths. However, we should have invested quality time on the integration

I believe foreign policymaking between the President of the United States, and Congress is very challenging, both the President and Congress have to come to an agreement along with compromise; this struggle is a balancing act. Can the President ultimately be the dominant force in foreign policymaking without Congress approval? Or does Congress play a big part in foreign policy?

President Ronald Reagan was one of the best Presidents in the history of the U.S. because of the goals and achievements that were resolved in the economic system as well as his peacefully problem-solving skills overseas. He loved America and was not shy about saying that. He did a lot of things during the 80s and believed in less government and more of the people’s independence in certain decisions.

In many of the different presidential campaigns one of the main things the candidates talk about doing is managing foreign affairs and working on foreign policy. They say this with lots of gusto and appeal to the peoples fear factor when in fact they are somewhat mistaken in what powers they will inherit as president. They do not know that the founding fathers did not intend for them to have this kind of power. You can see from the Articles of Confederation, the Constitution, and the Federalist Papers that our founding fathers had originally intended for congress to be the main branch of the government that would work on foreign policy and affairs.

Not much has changed for the President in the Constitution of the United States, but the interpretation of those things has varied throughout the life of the US. The constitution has been amended only 27 times, and the small document contains all the information we need to run a country. Through interpretation, the United States have been successful for the last XX years.

The Constitution was originally divided into seven articles. The first article in the Constitution grants the Legislative Branch its powers along with its limitations. It states that the Legislative Branch- also known as Congress- is divided into two houses: the House of Representatives, and the Senate. Congress has the authority to manage money by taxing, borrowing money, and regulating trade. Additionally, other important powers Congress incorporates is the authority to raise armies and preserving the navy. On the other hand, in spite of the fact that Congress has many powers, it also has restrictions. Congress cannot do any of the following: deny the writ of habeas corpus, tax on exports, pass any ex post facto laws, or pass trade regulations

The Articles of Confederation was drafted between 1776 and 1777 by the Continental Congress, although it did not go into effect until 1781 (Schultz, 2013). The federal government under the Articles of Confederation had three branches: Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. They granted unique powers to each branch. The intention was to

Presidents today have an increased amount of powers when compared to their predecessors of the 19th Century, will that pattern continue, or will it somehow stop? It has been seen that presidents today have more power than what presidents a few centuries had. This became more noticeable during the 20th century when Franklin D. Roosevelt used his power the way no other president had done so. Franklin D. Roosevelt began to exercise his power when he began to expand federal programs. He placed an executive order to enact the New Deal in order to deal with the depression. Other examples of this use of power are the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933, which then created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Securities and Exchange Commission

All legislative power in government is built around Congress. Congress is the only part of the government that can make new laws and change existing laws. Congress also has the power to establish the United States government’s budget. They bring taxes and tariffs to fund the governmental services, like
