History

Answer:

The executive branch has so many checks because this is the branch that could become the most powerful if such checks did not exist.

Explanation:

Because the executive branch concentrates military and spending power, the president could easily become a dictator if the executive branch powers were not as limited as they are.

The founding father wanted precisely to keep the president from becoming a dictator. They also believed that Congress, not the president, should be the most important government power.

The case of Tinker v. Des Moines School District dealt with?
kkurt [141]

Answer: A) students' rights to free speech

Explanation:

In 1965, Mary Beth Tinker, a 13-year-old high school student, <u>protested against the War in Vietnam by wearing a black armband. </u>

As a sanction, she was prohibited from wearing the armband by school officials and she also got a suspension, together with her brother and another student. When the students came back to school, they didn't wear armbands anymore, but they were dressed in black for the rest of the school year.

The case was brought before the court by the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union). The Supreme Court ruled that students are allowed freedom of expression at school, provided that it doesn't damage the educational process.
