As of right now we as Americans do not respect human rights. In 2017 The United States moved backward on human rights. Trump has targeted refugees and immigrants, calling them criminals and security threats, emboldened racist politics by equivocating on white nationalism, and consistently championed anti Muslim ideas and policies. There is still discrimination in The United States about gay rights and people. If we do partner with them we can influence them to become more of a democracy.
If you do intervene and Putin does nothing ,that will make him look very weak. He might take this any intervention from the United States and turn it around on us. He is very power hungry so he will not just sit around and take any type of intervention. Doing this could lead to another huge war that would cost trillions of dollars and millions of American lives.
If we stay out of Russian affairs this will only give them time to build their military and restore its empire. We are already in Russian affairs and we are fighting terrorism and violent extremism. We also have shared interests in nuclear security and nonproliferation. So we are already in Russian affairs and many of them are for the better. So why not continue to be a partner with them?
The United States should make Russia a partner. If we make them a partner and treat them as a full partner it could encourage democracy on international issues.
Russia and United States are the two most powerful countries in the world. If we do partner with them than we can battle terrorism and drug trafficking. Russia is extremely powerful and is a very important country in international politics.
Sorry but impeaching has only happened three times throughout history and none of the three have been actually removed from office. The president can send troops to places without a declaration of war so who cares about the war declaration when he can just send troops like the Truman Doctrine and how President Obama sent troops into Libya. And sweetheart not one branch including executive or legislative is responsible for running the government that is why they made checks and balances.
Can you clarify the second sentence please. It makes absolutely zero sense.
Executive orders are awesome. We don't need to stupid congress in our business checking these. We can make these without congress's review. These orders are a perfect example of how the executive is more powerful than congress. We can get these orders through the executive branch with no problem. President Obama made many executive orders to get passed congress.
One way the executive branch is more powerful than congress is Executive Privilege. We can keep anything a secret from congress. Screw those stupid subpoenas. We can only answer to our own branch only. No one cares about congress.
Why would you take the bill of rights away???
The bill of rights secures the peoples basic rights and privileges. It also reserves any powers not given to the federal government to the states and to the people.
Without the bill of rights the government would become tyrannous!!!
The strong central government would be selfish. They will vote for policies that better themselves and create laws that help their party. It would end up being like it was before!! We would be under a despotism that we fought so hard to remove ourselves from. It would take away the sovereignty of the states. A strong central government threatens our personal liberties!!!
Yes it is, if you want a polar pop and you only have a dollar and you were supposed to buy your friend a drink guess what you are gonna do. Buy the polar pop and drink that thing right in front of your friend.
NO, this is false!!! A strong central government would be to strong then it would take away our individual rights without the bill of rights!! It would just be dominated by the wealthy and would only make decisions for themselves. We will end up just like Britian!!!!
Yes a standing army has no morals. It will more than likely be the grand engine of oppression. It will also have a strong tendency to depress and inslave the people.
A standing military will not be safe for the people's liberty!!!!
The necessary and proper clause is just a clause that will give the legislative branch unlimited power.
The clause is a loophole for congress to decide what is or is not a law. They will abuse this power by laying and collecting taxes,imposts, and excises when they want to, also they can lay unlimited taxes on whoever as they please.(Brutus 1, page 309)
This means that congress has the power to make any lay they want to make. Even if it does not have any enumerated powers to make the law they can still over rule it with this clause.It also gives them implied powers that will be debated for many years to come.
