History

STatiana [176]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

The presidents you want to look into are

1. George Washington who refused to serve a third term thus setting the precedent of not serving more than 2 terms.

2. Theodore Roosevelt who wrestled with the prospect of a third term and then decided against doing and then wished he had (run for the 3rd term). He did try again after Taft served one term. Teddy ran under the Bullmoose banner as an independent. He was defeated by Woodrow Wilson who got 41% of the popular vote to Roosevelt's 27%.

3. Franklin Roosevelt who actually did run for 4 terms although he died in office in 1944. He was one of the great presidents of the 20th century and ranks highly among all presidents for what he accomplished.

In 1951, the 22nd Amendment was passed limiting the president's terms in office at 2.

Im assuming that you are asking about the Constitution.

What is the primary issue with a one party system?
Bad White [126]
The primary issue with a one party system is the suppression of individual rights and no democratic rights.


In a one-party system, like the one in Communist China, the people have no voice in how the country is run. One political party makes all the decision without any opposition in the parliament.

From the perspective of human rights, this will lead to dictatorship and a curb on freedom of speech.

(15 pts) Why did Christianity rise as the Roman empire was on a decline?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:"Christianity and the loss of traditional values. The decline of Rome dovetailed with the spread of Christianity, and some have argued that the rise of a new faith helped contribute to the empire's fall. The Edict of Milan legalized Christianity in 313, and it later became the state religion in 380."
