The writers of the US Constitution put into practice the idea of separation of powers by establishing three branches of government: the executive (responsible for the enforcement of laws), the legislative (responsible for the passage of laws), and the judicial (responsible for the deliberation of laws). These separate powers then became imbued with the system of checks and balances where no single branch can act completely independently from the other. Take, for example, the appointment of Supreme Court judges. 

Appointing a Supreme Court judge is a responsibility of the President, the head of the executive branch. The president will pick a judge thereby influencing the judicial branch. However, the choice must first be ratified by the legislative branch, thereby giving them a deal of power in deciding who is going to become a Supreme Court judge. So there you can see that all branches have a role in this process, none of which can occur without the other branch having an impact.

Andrew Jackson was, to some, a great president. However, his cruel actions outweighed his good ones. He was malevolent to people of other races, like many southerners from that time period. He stole money from the government for his own personal benefit. He sent the Native Americans on the Trail of Tears and he was very cruel to slaves. All in all, Andrew Jackson was a malignant person who should not have become president. In the next couple paragraphs, I will explain more about Andrew Jackson and his flaws and cruel actions. (You can use this as your introduction paragraph)

Hope this helped! Sorry it took so long by the way, I got distracted with my essay:)

Justice Bradley of the U.S. Supreme Court wrote this comment. It appears in the case summary for Bradwell v. Illinois, 1872.

I don’t think so. He implies women are only to be wives and mothers, which also implies the old statuses of men working, voting, owning property and women not being allowed to do so. This is not just the Justice’s personal opinion to keep to himself, and he says civil society must be based on the “law of the creator.” Personally, I think his perspective is rubbish
