Checks and Balances was designed to keep each branch from assuming too much power. Presidential power is checked and balanced in many ways. While he can veto various bills and keep them from becoming laws, he can be overridden by a 2/3 vote in both houses. SO if the Congress feels like the President is over stepping his bounds then they can in turn overrule him. The Supreme Court is also in the mix in that if they deem a law to be unconstitutional then they can rule it so and the law is no more. Presidents can influence Supreme Courts by whom they nominate for open positions (or in the case of one President, attempt to add more judges to the Court). However, after the nomination is made and the Senate approves and confirms them then they are free. The only way a Judge can be removed is they are found to be doing something illegal, deemed incompetent and unable to continue doing their job, resign, or die. This allows judges to "operate outside the realm of politics." The idea is that they can focus and not worry about politics and we can assume that decisions will be made free from political influences and bribery.

Why might the credibility of the passage be questioned?
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A). It is biased.

Explanation:

The credibility of the given passage by Columbus can be questioned as it offers a biased representation of the inhabitants. <em><u>This prejudice is evident from the use of descriptive words like 'timid, full of terror, guileless, liberal, etc.' which imposes the author's feelings and opinions on to the readers</u></em>. A text is characterized as credible when it offers an objective representation of the topic with sufficient evidences to support his/her claim. But here the author merely passes his judgment without any evidence to back it which shows the bias. This puts the trustworthiness of the content in question. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Answer:

The Industrial Revolution changed America in profound ways.  First, it made America a nation of city-dwellers.  Without cars, people needed to live close to their workplaces.  This led to another set of issues, such as urban crowding, crime, and sanitation.  Disease epidemics would spread in cities due to crowding and poor trash removal.  Cities would also attract those who would take advantage of the poor—often immigrants who would take low-paying jobs.
