Congressional Powers and Privileges Our Constitution gives Congres.docx
Congressional Powers and Privileges
Our Constitution gives Congress very broad and important powers. The Constitution also gives the President very important, though less expansive powers. It is apparent that the Founding Fathers clearly wanted Congress to be the most influential branch of our government, yet conflict between Congress and the Presidency over these powers is a recurring theme in our government. A clear understanding of the powers assigned to Congress and the President by the Constitution is needed in order to critically analyze the conflictual and cooperative relationships between Congress and the Presidency.
Write a research paper that identifies and then describes two of the main powers assigned to Congress and two of the main powers assigned to the President by the Constitution. In addition, explain how and why tensions between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government could be created when Congress and the President exercise the powers assigned to them by the Constitution.
The paper should be organized into the following five sections:
Introduction and thesis.
Description of two major powers assigned to Congress by the Constitution.
Description of two major powers assigned to the President by the Constitution.
Explanation of how and why tensions between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government could be created when Congress and the President exercises the powers assigned to them by the Constitution.
Conclusion.
The paper must be three to four pages in length (excluding title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least four scholarly resources other than the textbook to support your claims. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar.

WEEK 1 DISCUSSION 1
For much of 2011 and 2012, public dissatisfaction with Congress rose to all time highs, with 70-80% expressing disapproval with how Congress does its job. Many commentators note that Americans are fed up with Washington "grid-lock" that makes government apparently unable to address important problems. Other observers believe that the national government is acting according to its design, based on separation of powers and checks and balances.
Before writing your initial post, review the assigned resources. To easily access the resources from the Ashford University Library, please see the table located in the Course Materials section.
In your initial post of at least 200-250 words, analyze how the U.S. Constitution implements separation of powers and checks and balances. Briefly explain why the constitutional framers based the new government on these ideas. Evaluate how separation of powers and checks and balances are working out in practice, today, justifying your assessment with persuasive reasoning and examples.
Fully respond to all parts of the question. Write in your own words. Support your position with APA citations to two or more of the assigned resources required for this discussion. Please be sure that you demonstrate understanding of these resources, integrate them into your argument, and cite them properly.
By Day 7, respond to at least two of your classmates' initial posts. Your peer responses each must be at least 75 words. They must demonstrate critical thinking (e.g., ask a relevant question

Episode IV - Built to Last
.
Reflect:
The U.S. Constitution is the cornerstone of our federal government. The Constitution establishes a basic operational framework that enables the three branches of government – executive, legislative, and judicial – to interact and function as a unit. Embedded in this operational framework are two key principles: separation of powers and a system of checks and balances.
Write:
In your initial post, explain why the separation of powers and the system of checks and balances are important for our democracy. Provide recent, real-world examples of the separation of powers and checks/balances in action (one example each). Also, discuss how the Constitution protects individual and group rights.

Week One Reflection
Prepare:
Prior to beginning your reflection this week, complete all course readings, your introduction, and the Discussion, “The U.S. Constitution.”
Reflect:
Once you have completed these assignments think about how American politics have and could affect your career aspirations. The Founding Fathers created an amazing governmental structure that affects almost every aspect of our lives even today. For instance, if you are a criminal justice major, what parts of the U.S. Constitution are applicable to what you are learning in your major? If you are a business major, which branch of government – executive, legislative, or judicial – has, or will have, the greatest influence on your business ambitions? If you are a political science major, how does separation of powers in the U.S. government affect the operations of most economic, social, and political processes throughout the United States?
Write:
In your initial post, based on your current academic major (declared or not), complete
one
of the following:
Describe which actions of the Founding Fathers .

Integration PaperInstructionsThe purpose of this assignment is.docx
Integration Paper
Instructions
The purpose of this assignment is to strengthen your political knowledge base, which will give you a better understanding of the terms and concepts presented in the lecture outlines and textbook. It will also assist in preparing you for the exams and in-class writing assignments. Please closely follow the format below:
I. Summary
Under this heading, write 2-3 paragraphs summarizing the news programs you watched for this assignment. The paragraphs should be a detailed synopsis (meaning concise but not vague) of several hours worth of political news. In your summary, include the name of the news programs you watched and the dates that you viewed them.
II. Integration
Under this heading, write roughly 4-6 paragraphs connecting the terms in the textbook and lecture outlines to the political news included in your summary. As a sample:
The confidential Justice Department document that was recently leaked to the press relates to numerous concepts outlined in the textbook. First, there are questions of executive authority. Article I of the Constitution states that the power to declare war belongs to Congress (A-4). While the Justice Department document does not authorize the President to declare war, it gives him unchecked power to take lethal measures. One of the reasons for the Bill of Rights is to limit the power of government. In fact, preventing government from amassing too much power was on the forefront of the framers’ minds as they drafted the new constitution (47-50). Still, presidents have historically circumvented checks on the executive branch with devices such as executive orders and signing statements (53).
All information should come from either the textbook or the class lecture outlines.
Do not
utilize outside books or online sources to complete this section of the assignment. Therefore, in terms of citation, including the page number(s) where you found the information is sufficient. If you reference a lecture outline, cite the title of the lecture outline that you used.
III. Commentary
Under this heading, write 1-2 paragraphs expressing your personal views about what you learned from watching the news.
The integration paper consists of two mini-papers. You are to follow this format twice, with each paper depicting different news and chapters from the text. The assignment is to be typed, single-spaced, and stapled. I will not accept loose/unsecured papers. It is worth 20 points.

Congressional Powers and Privileges Our Constitution gives Congres.docx
Congressional Powers and Privileges
Our Constitution gives Congress very broad and important powers. The Constitution also gives the President very important, though less expansive powers. It is apparent that the Founding Fathers clearly wanted Congress to be the most influential branch of our government, yet conflict between Congress and the Presidency over these powers is a recurring theme in our government. A clear understanding of the powers assigned to Congress and the President by the Constitution is needed in order to critically analyze the conflictual and cooperative relationships between Congress and the Presidency.
Write a research paper that identifies and then describes two of the main powers assigned to Congress and two of the main powers assigned to the President by the Constitution. In addition, explain how and why tensions between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government could be created when Congress and the President exercise the powers assigned to them by the Constitution.
The paper should be organized into the following five sections:
Introduction and thesis.
Description of two major powers assigned to Congress by the Constitution.
Description of two major powers assigned to the President by the Constitution.
Explanation of how and why tensions between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government could be created when Congress and the President exercises the powers assigned to them by the Constitution.
Conclusion.
The paper must be three to four pages in length (excluding title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least four scholarly resources other than the textbook to support your claims. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page.

WEEK 1 DISCUSSION 1
For much of 2011 and 2012, public dissatisfaction with Congress rose to all time highs, with 70-80% expressing disapproval with how Congress does its job. Many commentators note that Americans are fed up with Washington "grid-lock" that makes government apparently unable to address important problems. Other observers believe that the national government is acting according to its design, based on separation of powers and checks and balances.
Before writing your initial post, review the assigned resources. To easily access the resources from the Ashford University Library, please see the table located in the Course Materials section.
In your initial post of at least 200-250 words, analyze how the U.S. Constitution implements separation of powers and checks and balances. Briefly explain why the constitutional framers based the new government on these ideas. Evaluate how separation of powers and checks and balances are working out in practice, today, justifying your assessment with persuasive reasoning and examples.
Fully respond to all parts of the question. Write in your own words. Support your position with APA citations to two or more of the assigned resources required for this discussion. Please be sure that you demonstrate understanding of these resources, integrate them into your argument, and cite them properly.

The U.S. Constitution is the cornerstone of our federal government.

Integration Paper
Instructions
The purpose of this assignment is to strengthen your political knowledge base, which will give you a better understanding of the terms and concepts presented in the lecture outlines and textbook. It will also assist in preparing you for the exams and in-class writing assignments. Please closely follow the format below:
I. Summary
Under this heading, write 2-3 paragraphs summarizing the news programs you watched for this assignment. The paragraphs should be a detailed synopsis (meaning concise but not vague) of several hours worth of political news. In your summary, include the name of the news programs you watched and the dates that you viewed them.
II. Integration
Under this heading, write roughly 4-6 paragraphs connecting the terms in the textbook and lecture outlines to the political news included in your summary. As a sample:
The confidential Justice Department document that was recently leaked to the press relates to numerous concepts outlined in the textbook. First, there are questions of executive authority. Article I of the Constitution states that the power to declare war belongs to Congress (A-4). While the Justice Department document does not authorize the President to declare war, it gives him unchecked power to take lethal measures. One of the reasons for the Bill of Rights is to limit the power of government. In fact, preventing government from amassing too much power was on the forefront of the framers’ minds as they drafted the new constitution (47-50). Still, presidents have historically circumvented checks on the executive branch with devices such as executive orders and signing statements (53).
All information should come from either the textbook or the class lecture outlines.
Do not
utilize outside books or online sources to complete this section of the assignment. Therefore, in terms of citation, including the page number(s) where you found the information is sufficient. If you reference a lecture outline, cite the title of the lecture outline that you used.
III. Commentary
Under this heading, write 1-2 paragraphs expressing your personal views about what you learned from watching the news.
The integration paper consists of two mini-papers. You are to follow this format twice, with each paper depicting different news and chapters from the text. The assignment is to be typed, single-spaced, and stapled. I will not accept loose/unsecured papers. It is worth 20 points.

Returning Warriors Organization (RWO)Returning Warriors Organiza.docx
Returning Warriors Organization (RWO)
Returning Warriors Organization (RWO) is a rapidly-growing association in Washington, DC. Last year, Vietnam veteran William Jones has held the CEO role of the organization which has more than doubled in membership. It now has over 3,000 members and has added Cassandra Jenkins as Director. Prior to the rapid growth, most of RWO’s records have been in paper format. However, the organization’s business manager, Regina Collins, has emphasized the need for a computerized system to help meet its information needs and to manage activities.
In addition to Ms. Collins, the organization employs a part-time administrative assistant, Martha Reynolds. Martha performs clerical duties such as filing, recordkeeping, answering phone calls, and producing the monthly newsletter to members using Word on a Windows personal computer. Shawn Johnson is a Desert Storm veteran who performs maintenance activities part-time in the evenings. Robert Duncan serves in a part-time paid marketing coordinator position, overseeing 25 volunteers who meet every Tuesday to prepare contribution letters to send to the membership.
The main concern of the RWO is with registering new members. When a prospective member wants to join, Mr. Jones, Ms. Jenkins or Ms. Collins speaks on the phone or in person with that person to establish rapport. Then, the person is mailed pre-numbered envelops for use in regular contributions to the RWO. Most contributions are made to the RWO using these envelops, although about 15% of each collection comes from cash and checks from non-member contributors. Additionally, RWO has a capital improvement campaign to purchase a building (and stop leasing) for the organization. Contributions to this fund are collected at fund-raising campaigns held once per month. The cost of acquiring the property, paving it, and making it ready for use is $500,000. RWO obtained a bank loan to finance this project, and makes monthly payments from the funds received at its fundraisers. As contributions are made, the remaining balance is reduced.
Since RWO is recognized as a 501(c) 3, non-profit organization, all contributions are tax-deductible. In January, RWO send out a summary report of all contributions made using envelops during the previous year for use in income tax preparation. RWO must also keep track of records of all its fund raising campaigns.
Mr. Jones and Ms. Jenkins have hired your small, information systems consulting firm to look into the possibility of developing an information system for RWO. This system will address the organization’s revenue resources and its record keeping requirements. Your contract has a six month turnaround time to complete the analysis and design of a feasible solution.
In

Introductory analysis phase requirements to include a cover letter addressed to the organization's management, a title page, a table of contents, and an executive summary of the an.
Response to the Attacks of 911The events of 911 devastated o.docx
Response to the Attacks of 9/11
The events of 9/11 devastated our Nation's sense of security and changed the outlook of law enforcement forever. Aside from the impact the attacks had on this Nation; be it the death toll, the economic impact, etc., law enforcement faced other unknown challenges on that fateful day. Several law enforcement and private sector agencies ranging from the New York City Police Department to FEMA arrived at Ground Zero only to find that their ability to communicate was severely inhibited due to incompatible equipment and fragmented technologies.
For this assessment, please research the communication challenges law enforcement agencies may have faced, be it internal, or in relation to other agencies, when responding to a particular disaster, either natural or man-made. Write a 3−5 page paper that:
Details the facts of the incident and the specific communication problems encountered
The consequences of those problems in terms of lives lost, etc.
The steps taken by the relevant agencies to address those problems. If no steps were taken, what steps should be taken?

The Urban Planning Council is a governmental land use planning authority with responsibility for regulation and planning of property development in a Middle Eastern country. The organization carries out reviews of private sector land use master plans, providing input and advice as well as issuing permits. The organization also prepares master plans in-house in response to market demands for social housing. Finally, the Urban Planning Council is responsible for the creation, evolution, dissemination and implementation of various planning regulations, guide manuals and design standards to be adhered to by all entities in the sector.
The mandates handed down to the Urban Planning Council by the higher levels of government are:
To ensure sustainable and appropriate development of land to meet social, economic and cultural needs;
To develop and curate the regulatory framework in which these activities take place; and
To ensure training of and knowledge transfer to local citizen employees in order to comply with short- and long-term goals for reduced dependency on expatriate skill sets (this mandate is common to all governmental organizations in the country).
According to Bryson (2011), a strategic issue is a “fundamental policy question or challenge affecting [the] mandates, missions, values…” of the organization. Two potential challenges that the organization may face within the strategic planning process are detailed here:
Firstly, the mandates of other governmental and semi-governmental organizations (key stakeholders) are not always clear or static. The government frequently rearranges and/or merges departments within different stand-alone agencies, in an effort to clarify and rationalize their mandates or to simplify the regulatory environment as a whole in the country. This applies to utility service companies, transport authorities, county-level municipal organizations and sector-specific regulatory entities. In the past 10 years, such changes have happened at least once per year at some level.
Secondly, the government has also been known to declare expatriate recruitment bans from time to time, in addition to ordering the removal of a percentage of existing expatriate employees. During such bans, which can last for a year or two, no government entity is allowed to permanently employ any foreign workers or professionals. This is done in an effort to ensure the highest possible levels of citizen employment. In this context, the term citizen refers to a national of the country. Such citizenship is only available by hereditary birth-right.

The emerging approaches to management in public organizations stems from the challenges created by the market dynamics, including globalization and advances in technology. Strategic planning for success has therefore assumed greater importance for managers of public institutions.
The key elements of the strategic planning process depends to a large extend on the model one adopts (whether conventional, issues-based, alignment, inspirational etc.). The policy process involves constant deliberations, bargaining and negotiations by politicians and other interest groups (Moore, 1995; Van Horn, et al., 2001). Therefore critical elements in strategic planning for public organizations include stakeholders, resource alignment and more importantly how to deliver sustainable outcomes.
Strategic planning is a set of managerial decisions that determine the long term survival of an institution according to Whaelen and Hunger (2005). It is critical to constantly monitor and elevate the external opportunities and threats taking into consideration the internal strengths and weaknesses.
In this regard, stakeholder analysis is critical to the success of strategic planning for success because it provides the opportunity for the institution to respond adequately to their needs and allow for institutional relevance and achievement of strategic objectives. Resource alignment is also important as it allows for the effective deployment of resources to meet objectives.
The strategic planning for Parliament of Ghana which I coordinate, takes into consideration all emerging issues into consideration in developing strategic initiatives particularly the issue stakeholder consultation because as an institution representing the people, the institutional relevance is determined by the ability to respond to the needs of citizens.

Response with 2-3 sentences to each one below 1. Goals and O.docx
Response with 2-3 sentences to each one below
1. Goals and Objectives are a vital part of your grant proposal. Goals are extensive statements with a long-term, ideal outcome in mind. Most proposals have no more than three goals (Community Toolbox, 2015). Objectives are detailed statements that will show the reviewer exactly how you plan to achieve your goals (Community Toolbox, 2015).
SMART objectives are well written objectives.
Specific
- Tell how much of what is to be accomplished in a given time-frame.
Measurable
- Information concerning the objective can be gathered, identified, or acquired from records.
Achievable
- The objectives are not only possible, the organization more than likely will be able to make them happen.
Relevant to the mission
- The organization has a clear perception of how these objectives fit in with the vision and mission of the organization.
Timed
- A timeline has been developed by the organization by which the objectives will be completed.
Challenging
- The organization is stretched to set its aims on important changes that are essential to members of the community (Community Toolbox, 2015).
A proposal was written for Lightsville Public Schools based on four focus areas developing specific activities based on each need, and creating measurable tools to evaluate whether or not students and parents are succeeding (Colorado Grants, 2015). Although most proposals have no more than three goals, this proposal had four. Each of the four goals relate directly to the four focus areas described above (Colorado Grants, 2015). The goals were well written and specific and the objectives coincided. The objectives were followed by the SMART format. There is no question as to what was to be accomplished.
Goal 1: Students who participate in the programs at the learning center will improve their academic achievement. Goal 1 had two objectives and they both coincided with the goal.
The Read to Succeed Project’s goal, in my opinion told what the goal was, but it did not grab my attention to where I wanted to read further. The goal states: “The goal of the Read to Succeed! Project is to enable at risk students and students with learning and reading disabilities to improve their reading skills to the point where they can succeed in school and develop the reading skills that will prepare them for high school and post-secondary education (Kurzweil Educational Systems , 2002).”
I would have worded the goal to say: The goal of the Read to Succeed! Project is to enable at risk students and students with learning and reading disabilities to advance their reading skills to the point where they are confident that they can succeed in school and their reading skills are developed to the point that they are confidently prepared for high school and post-secondary education.
Objective 1 stated: “Providing a measurable increase in reading speed, comprehension, and reading attention span. The objective is that the students will do.

300 word minimum APA Format
1. Graduate professors like to insist that the completion of thesis or dissertation research is not merely an “academic exercise” or final hurdle to obtaining the desired degree. Explain at least one personal benefit gained from completing a high quality thesis or dissertation. Then explain at least one societal benefit that follows.
2. Do recent technological advances (e.g., the Internet, electronic databases) assure that future research will be of higher quality, or of greater utility, than past research? Support your answer.
3. Daphne has been a member of a research team studying interpersonal aggression among preschoolers for more than a year. In that time, her team has repeatedly employed a consistent set of techniques and procedures to study preschoolers as they interact in a number of settings. The procedures involve volunteer mothers bringing their children to the university child development lab for a an observed "play session". Settings in which the observations have occurred so far include the university pre-school, affluent local day-care centers, and a pre-kindergarten program being offered in the neighborhood school district. All of these settings were fairly racially homogenous.
Daphne has just learned that a friend of a friend can help her gain research access in the near future to preschoolers in an unusually racially diverse but impoverished preschool setting. Daphne decides she has no time to prepare a formal research proposal before embarking on the study. 'Besides,' she thinks, 'this study should go just like all the others we've done.'
Is Daphne leaving herself open to problems in this situation, or is she safe moving ahead with no formal proposal, given how familiar she is with the study techniques and procedures?

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
