History

Correct answer:  A.  vetoing laws passed by Congress.

This is a significant power in the hands of the President.  Congressional decision making is affected by the knowledge that in both houses of Congress, a two-thirds majority will be needed to override the President's veto.  Historically, Congress has been able to override less than 10% of presidential vetoes.  So Congress will seek to make sure they have sufficient votes before proceeding with passage of a bill into law ...  unless they want to pass the legislation simply as a statement of principle, knowing they don't have the votes to override a veto.

How did the reality of the kennedy administration differ from the popular image?
Alisiya [41]
The truth of Kennedy's short administration doesn't generally contrast and the notice of Camelot famously connected with it. The Bay of Pigs and his summit in Vienna with Nikita Khrushchev were finished disappointments. He got not very many administrative propositions through Congress. He had all the earmarks of being a youthful, solid pioneer when he was really an exceptionally wiped out man for the duration of his life. He was additionally a famous adulterer.

What is the biggest criticism of the electoral college system?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The biggest criticism of the electoral college is that the system is inherently oligarchic. The system is set up so that the Electorates (those who vote for the president) can be essentially anyone. This is what makes up a Representative Republic and not a Direct Democracy. In our republic, we choose who gets to vote for our president, in other words, you chose a <u>representative</u>. In a direct democracy, you chose for your president <u>directly</u>
