Answer: It was intended to protect American citizens who were in danger in the Cuban Revolution.

The USS Maine is known for having been lost in Habana Harbour on February 15, 1898. The ship was originally sent to the island in order to protect U. S. interests during the Cuban revolt against Spain. The ship blew up and sank, killing nearly three quarters of its crew. Although the cause of the sinking is unclear, popular opinion blamed Spain. This motivated the Spanish-American War later that year.

ololo11 [35]

The Constitutional Issues that arose in the above presidential actions were:

  • Ronald Reagan - Iran - Contra Affair - Separation of Powers.
  • Bill Clinton impeachment - Checks and Balances principle.
  • George W. Bush : Use of executive priviledge - Separation of Powers
  • George W. Bush: Patriot Act: - Bill of Rights violation
  • George W. Bush: Iraq War - Separation of Powers.

<h3>What were the constitutional issues involved in past president's actions?</h3>

The Separation of Powers principle allows Congress the sole power over U.S. funding efforts internationally. President Reagan's administration circumvented this by trading with Iraq and funding Contra rebels.

Bill Clinton's impeachment showed the Checks and Balances principle that allows for Congress to act against the president for misdemenor crimes.

George Bush tried to use executive privilege but this could only go so far because Congress had powers over his purported actions

The Patriot Act violated the Bill of Rights as regards searches without warrants and violation of privacy. The Iraq War showed the separation of powers principle because Congress had to okay an invasion before it happened.
