The memo should explain American Federalism and representation to a new president. It should advise the president on how to use the federalist system to protect democratic freedoms in the Constitution. The memo also needs to provide a specific policy example of how the president can pursue a priority while respecting the distribution of power between levels of government. Theories of federalism must be applied to solve citizens' problems, focusing on stakeholders' roles. Direct quotes require citations and paraphrasing should be substantiated.
