With a surge of pressure being put on state legislators this year to apply for an Article V convention, here are three reasons to oppose all such constitutional convention applications.
Calls for a Constitutional Convention are exercises in misdirection. The Constitution doesn't need fixing; government officials who violate it need to be removed.

Congress and the Presidency: An Unequal Relationship?
"The tyranny of the legislature is really the danger most to be feared, and will continue to be so for many years to come. The tyranny of the executive power will come in its turn, but at a more distant period."
- Thomas Jefferson
In 1783 American colonists, defying incredible odds, had just beaten the United Kingdom, western hemisphere's preeminent power, in the
American War for Independence
. (NPS.gov, n.d.) Now, these thirteen colonies, saddled with a new governmental charter, the onerous
Articles of Confederation
, sought to chart their own, independent path. (Gilderlehrman, n.d.) As a result, in 1787 disgruntled colonists sent delegates to Philadelphia in order to revise the dysfunctional Articles of Confederation. Yet, in a radical departure, most delegates decided not to amend the current constitution, but instead to craft a new Constitution. (OConnor & Sabato, 2019)
During the four month Constitutional Convention the delegates readily agreed upon James Madison’s basic premise of a new, United States government delineated along three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. That said, most delegates envisioned a strong legislative body and a weak executive office. (Maier, 2011)
Today, many historians and political scientists argue that the institution of the presidency has dramatically increased in power since the end of WWII at the expense of Congress.
This notion of a modern, expansive presidential power, stands in steadied contrast to Congress’ Constitutional ability to “check” the executive branch.
The U.S Congress has three, broad powers that, as per the founding fathers, act as a “check” against the executive branch:
Lawmaking Power. Only Congress can propose and pass legislation.
An example of Congress’s lawmaking function is the
Declaration of War with Japan of 1941
. More information about Congress’s ability to declare war can be found on the official
House of Representatives’ website
.
Budgetary Power. Only Congress has the authority to pass and fund the federal budget. Whereas the president request monies for the federal bureaucracies, Congress actually controls the purse strings.
An example of Congress’s budgetary function is the
Congressional Budget Act of 1974
. More information about the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 can be found on the official
House of Representatives’ website
.
Oversight Power. As per Whitehouse.gov, “Oversight of the executive branch is an important Congressional check on the President’s power and a balance against his discretion in implementing laws and making regulations. A major way that Congress conducts oversight is through hearings. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs are both devoted to overseeing and reforming government operations, and each committee conducts oversight in its policy area.” (Whitehouse, .

Lesson Introduction
The framers' distrust of human nature is nowhere better reflected than in their treatment of the issues represented by Federalism. It was the framers' goal to divide power—to make it so difficult to hold and exercise power that the government would only act when there was substantial support for its policies. In the preceding lesson, we learned how the framers provided for a system of separation of powers among the institutions of the national government: no single individual or body of individuals is to hold exclusive executive, legislative, or judicial power. The framers used Federalism as a second means of dividing political power.
Federalism refers to the division and sharing of constitutionally assigned or implied powers between the national and state governments. America's federal system, a mixture of states' rights and national supremacy, permits the states and municipalities control over a number of important programs—highways, education, the police, land regulations, etc. While the federal government possesses enormous power, it must persuade the states to govern in ways that will meet national political, economic, and social goals. The states may not always be so persuaded—witness the years of resistance to progressive civil rights legislation passed by Congress, or the desegregation rulings of the United States Supreme Court.
Before completing this lesson, ask yourself: In a country of our size, complexity, and diversity can any one level of government ever respond to the needs and demands of its citizens?

Directions:
Essay Questions. Answer the following questions thoroughly. These questions must be submitted for grading. Take your time and completely answer each one. Remember: Do not copy your answers from the textbook. Each answer should be one to two pages long.
1. For the past 200 years, there has been a continuing debate in the U.S. over what is a proper division of power between the state and national governments. One of the reasons for this is that the Constitution is not specific in assigning authority for all government functions. What specific division of power between state and national governments is made by the Constitution? Identify important policies, judicial decisions, and historical events (studied in this chapter) that affected the division of power between state and national governments and explain how they have affected it.
2. Federalism is only one type of arrangement of government power. Name two other systems that arrange government powers. How are these two systems different from federalism?
3. It is often argued that state governments are "closer to the people" than the federal government. What are some of the arguments (studied in this chapter) for suggesting that state governments are closer to the people than the federal government? What are some of the arguments suggesting that states are not ...
Assignment 2 American Constitution Following the Revolutionary Wa.docxbobbywlane695641
Assignment 2: American Constitution
Following the Revolutionary War and separation from England, the need for a new government was clear. A group of men, who became known as the “nation’s founders” or Founding Fathers, developed a new government based on principles and beliefs they knew through their experiences, readings, and study. The Founding Fathers had a great deal in common with each other, including property interests, education, and extensive political experience. These common experiences and birthrights created a strong consensus about what should be incorporated into the government that would replace England’s.
Troubles developed immediately upon establishment of the United States of America with the 1781 Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union. Economic difficulties and means of dividing power between leaders and competing interests caused conflict. The conflicts had to be resolved, and some of the Founding Fathers and others, who would come to be known as the Framers went to Philadelphia to revise the Articles of Confederation. However, it became apparent immediately that the Articles could not be revised, and therefore, they were abandoned, and the Framers set about to create a new form of government. Though the effort was eventually successful and resulted in the Constitution, there was a great deal of conflict during its development in the summer of 1787. The form of government established incorporated the ideas of diverse groups, as well as the Framers’ recognition of the need for compromise.

Introduction
In the recent years, the federal government has adopted various strategies to ensure public administration. There have been constitutional amendments as well as legislative reforms that deal with state statutes. The government has revolutionized public administration through the delivery of justice and the enactment of rules and regulations. This paper is a reflective essay on three aspects of public administration that include sources of formal law, state legislation and evolution of state law.
There are several sources of formal law that can be applied in public administration. As learned in the week’s chapter, the constitution is the major organ that acts as a source of laws that govern the citizens of the United States. The constitution contains numerous laws that define the various sectors of the nation. According to Holzer and Schwester (2011), the federal government through the Congress undertakes constitutional amendments to ensure that laws that control the actions of people are enacted.
Through the study of the sources of formal laws, I gained immense cognitive knowledge on fundamental aspects of public administration. Moreover, I am now in a position to define the role of laws in the society and the impact the laws will have in the future generations.
During the week’s study, the content that was taught enabled the learners to improve on their knowledge of public administration. The workload was adequate for that particular period. The knowledge learned about public administration was broken into various stages that allowed the learners to understand each section fully. As the learning continued throughout the week, I was in a position to embrace several strategies that assisted m ...
Part 1 The Bill of RightsExplain why the Anti-federalists p.docxssuser562afc1
Part 1: The Bill of Rights:
Explain why the Anti-federalists pushed for the Bill of Rights to be included in the US Constitution. What reasons did they cite as necessary in response to the desire of Federalists to create a strong central government?
Next, explain some of the civil liberties that were included and established individual freedoms for Americans. This website may be helpful:
Bill of Rights of the United State of America (1791)
Finally, explain how the Supreme Court has expanded civil liberties in the U.S. since the creation of the Bill of Rights. Include in your discussion the role of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Explain the balance of power between the individual and the government as interpreted by the Supreme Court and illustrated in the cases within your textbook. Please refer to at least 3 cases. (For example; Gideon vs Wainright, Miranda v Arizona, Lemon v Kurtzman, Engel vs Vitale, Texas vs Johnson, Griswold v Connecticut and Roe v Wade.)
Part 2: Analyze these civil liberties in two important areas of controversy today.
First, as it pertains to national security, analyze the pros and cons of expanding government surveillance and give me your verdict on whether we should decrease civil liberties in the name of national security.
Next, when it comes to freedom of speech, do you believe the free speech clause of the US Constitution grants corporations the right to unlimited campaign contributions to politicians? Analyze the pros and cons.
Your essay should be between 500 and 600 words, double-spaced and in APA format, with parenthetical citations and a Reference List. A cover page is not necessary.

Running head: DISCUSSION QUESTION Discussion question Student’s Name
University Affiliation Discussion question Explain how the Constitution provides for a
system of separation of powers and checks and balances. There is no place in the
Constitution that contains an express order to protect the boundaries of separation of
power and it also does not specifically direct on the maintenance of checks and balances
system. Nonetheless, does it give the powers to adjudicate, legislate and execute to the
three separate power branches (Daniel, 1997). Separation of powers refers to the
dividing of the responsibilities of the government into separate branches in order to
limit any branch from carrying out the core responsibilities of another branch. The
intension of this is to avoid power concentrations and offer for checks and balances. The
constitution of the United States intentionally inefficient. The Separation of Powers
planned by those who frame the Constitution was intended to do one main thing which
is to avoid the majority from ruling with dictatorship. Based on the experience of those
who framed the constitution avoided giving any new government branch too much

particular case, so that the court must either decide that case conformably to the law, disregarding the
constitution; or conformably to the constitution, disregarding the law; the court must determine which
of these conflicting rules governs the case. This is of the very essence of judicial duty. If, then, the
courts are to regard the constitution, and the constitution is superior to any ordinary act of the
legislature, the constitution, and not such ordinary act, must govern the case to which they both
apply.” -John Marshall, decision in Marbury v. Madison (1803) Which of the following statements
best summarizes Marshall’s argument?
The Supreme Court should judge whether both a law and the Constitution
apply to a case

a single government; and the usurpations are guarded against by a division of the government into
distinct and separate departments. In the compound republic of America, the power surrendered
by the people is first divided between two distinct governments, and then the portion allotted to
each subdivided among distinct and separate departments. Hence a double security arises to the
rights of the people. The different governments will control each other, at the same time that
each will be controlled by itself." -Publius (James Madison), Federalist No. 51, 1788 Which of the

all acts contrary to the manifest tenor of the Constitution void. Without this, all the
reservations of particular rights or privileges would amount to nothing.” -Alexander
Hamilton, Federalist No. 78, “The Judiciary Department,” 1788 Which of the following
statements best summarizes Hamilton’s argument?
The judicial branch should defer all rulings on legislative issues to Congress
because members of Congress are elected, but judges are not

whether the laws passed by Congress are constitutional
The judicial branch needs to be held accountable for its decisions and have
term limits to protect individual rights
The judicial branch should not have the power to overrule acts of Congress
and the president because it does not have the power to enforce laws
