The document discusses a daily plan that includes ranking President Obama's job performance from 1 to 10 and explaining the rating, participating in a reading group activity about forms of government, taking notes on chapter 1 section 3 of a democracy textbook, and answering a question about whether rights are diminished when any person's rights are threatened by quoting John F. Kennedy. The democracy textbook section discusses concepts like worth of the individual, equality, majority rule and minority rights, compromise, and individual freedom balanced with societal good. It also covers democracy and the economy, including free enterprise, supply and demand, and a mixed economy with private enterprise and regulation.

Chapter Eight
The Presidency
Carl D. Cavalli
Learning Objectives
After covering the topic the presidency, students should understand:
1. The origins and executive nature of the presidency and the roles
played by presidents.
2. The sources of presidential power.
3. The organization of both the White House and the larger Executive
Branch.
4. The growth of presidential power and how that power has changed
over the past century.
Abstract1
The framers envisioned a presidency that left them concerned about
what they termed ‘‘energy in the executive.’’ In other words, they thought
the presidency would not be powerful enough. Contemporary politicians
and scholars present a very different view. They often debate whether or
not the presidency has in fact become too powerful. Related to this shift
in the views about power is a shift in what is perceived to be the main
sources of presidential power. The framers created an of ce empowered
by, and limited by, the Constitution. However, modern analysts see the
of ce empowered by a very different and extra constitutional source
the public.
Introduction
The Second Branch?
The president is the head of the Executive Branch. By executive, we
mean that it is the branch designed to carry out (or execute) policy. The
framers clearly treated the executive as a secondary branch. It is discussed
in Article II of the Constitution. Article I covers the Legislative Branch
largely because they felt it would be the most powerful branch. It seems
more the opposite today. How can this be so?

Presidential Roles
It is best to begin exploring this question by reviewing the expectations
placed on presidents. That is, what roles do they play in our system?
Generally, they play two roles: Chief of State and the head of government.
Chief of State
One role the president plays is that of chief of state, or national symbol.
The presidency is the only of ce in this country elected by the entire nation.
Presidents have come to embody their symbolic role in many ways.
When Barak Obama deliverd his second inaugural address on January
21, 2013, one of the rst things he said was We af rm the promise of
our democracy. Is we his family? The White House? The federal
government? No. His use of the term is a reference to the nation.
Presidents often claim to be a voice for the American people (e.g., see
Barger, 1978, Teten, 2007). Whether this is true or not, their priorities do
become our priorities—when a president suggests the nation focus on an
issue (like civil rights or health care), we do engage in debate. We may
not always agree with the president, but we do wind up discussing these
issues as a nation.
In addition, presidential involvement in international affairs is the
equivalent of American involvement. ...

Liberty
In Lecture 1, we explored how “
liberty
” was interpreted by the Founders of the American Constitution. They were influenced by political writers who stated that liberty is always at risk and must be protected by the citizens. John Locke argued that liberty be protected through a contract (the Constitution) between the government and the people. He went on to say that government only exists because of the people, because they created it.
While our founding fathers realized government was necessary to protect the citizens from criminals and outsiders (
Lecture 2, comments about the King of England
), they were concerned with amount of power the government should be given. When the Constitution was drafted it included the following:
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America” (as cited in “Preamble to the Constitution,” n.d.).
However, as the proposed constitutions went to the individual colonies for ratification, concerns about the power granted to government were raised. To ensure that the people maintained power, the first Ten (10) Amendments (also called: The Bill of Rights) were added.
Review this week's lectures and the first Ten Amendments to the Constitution. Make sure to watch the supplemental video as well.
Write a one to two page essay addressing the question: "what does liberty mean to you?"
As in all your weekly written assignments, be sure to tie your writing to the readings for that week. You should strive to demonstrate to your instructor (and to the rest of the university) your full understanding of this. Don't just answer the question but really think it through. How will your ideas fit within Locke's "social contract?"
Submit your work as an attached file. Double-space your paper and use 12 point Times New Roman as your font.

The law of diminishing marginal utility is at the heart of the explanation of numerous economic phenomena, including time preference and the value of goods ... it also plays a crucial role in showing that socialism is economically and ethically inferior to capitalism.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
