If checks and balances didn't exist, there would be nothing stopping a group i.e. the president, from making whatever laws they wanted.
In essence, if there are no checks and balances, government is no longer a democracy because nothing prevents the group in power from doing what they want. For example, a president that wasn't checked by the opposition party could pass a law saying that they are legally allowed to be president until they die, and nobody would stop them.
Answer:
Bayard Rustin

While a student at City College of New York in the 1930s, Rustin joined the Young Communist League (YCL). Drawn to what he believed was the Communists' commitment to racial justice, Rustin left the organization when the Communist Party shifted their emphasis away from civil rights activity in 1941.
This statement is FALSE.
The European Union is constituted by 28 member states, and not all of them are republics. For example, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands are constitutional monarchies.
It is not a partnership but a form of supranational integration. The level of integration is not as deep as the one that can be found in a federal country like the US. Its member states have established a common market, free movement of people and goods, a common currency, common foreign policy and even certain levels of political integration. Many other aspects such as the fiscal policy, are decided at the state level and the EU has no authority over them.
