The purpose of our Federal Government, as found in the Preamble of the Constitution, is to "establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity." In order to achieve this purpose the Founding Fathers established three main principles on which our Government is based:

<u><em>Inherent rights:</em></u> Rights that anyone living in America has;

<u><em>Self Government:</em></u> Government by the people; and

<em><u>Separation of Powers</u></em>: Branches of government with different powers.

The president vetoes a law and the Supreme Court declares a law unconstitutional. What two principles are reflected here?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

b

federalism and separation of powers

Explanation:

When the proper court determines that a legislative act (a law) conflicts with the constitution, it finds that law unconstitutional and declares it void in whole or in part. This is called judicial review. ... Thus, national constitutions typically apply only to government actions.

The Framers of the Constitution gave the President the power to veto acts of Congress to prevent the legislative branch from becoming too powerful. This is an illustration of the separation of powers integral to the U.S. Constitution
