lina2011 [118]

The NOT true statement = The Executive branch "mainly interprets the federal laws and upholds or negates them." That statement describes the Judicial branch, headed by the US Supreme Court.

The other statements all are pertinent to the Executive branch of government. The Justice Department is part of the Executive branch, thus responsible for enforcement of laws. The 15 divisions of the Executive branch are the various departments headed by Cabinet level officials -- such as the Department of Defense, Department of Education, etc.

One statement wasn't included in the list of Executive branch which maybe should be listed as a key responsibility of the chief of state, the President: Article II of the US Constitution names the President the Commander-in-Chief, so the Executive branch is in charge of the US Armed Forces. The War Powers Act (1973) asserts that Congress must give approval for continued deployment of any US troops. But the President has the authority to send American forces into combat prior to getting such approval for their continued military action from Congress.

Answer:

c. Believed he needed the support of Southern Democrats to pass his economic and social legislation

Explanation:

According to the historical records, President John F. Kennedy moved slowly in the area of racial justice because he "believed he needed the support of Southern Democrats to pass his economic and social legislation"

During the administration of John F. Kennedy, before his assassination in 1963, he wanted to effect so many changes in both domestic and foreign policies.

However, knowing that the Southern states most often do not support the elevation of people of color, and the fact that he needed the support of Southern Democrats to pass his economic and social legislation to make those policies a reality, he was slow in enacting Civil Right legislation so as not to anger the Southern states.
