Answer:
Popular Sovereignty
Explanation:
The Progressive Era was a period of social activism and political reform in which many civilians participated (direct democracy) in order to reform the vertical (hierarchy) political system. Among the targets were the political machines with their corrupt and malfunctioning representatives.
Popular Sovereignty, that dates back to the Enlightenment, is the purest of (and most horizontal) democratic government, in the sense that the goverment´s purpose should be to protect (the civil rights) and serve the people, and not the other way around. And if they fail to do, or are corrupt or both, so they should be replaced.
The u.s new an attack was coming but they didn't know when, as a result they were unprepared and lost a lot of their stuff
Law Making is to make or enact laws for a particular country or subject.
The system of checks and balances in government was developed to ensure that no one branch of government would become too powerful.
So the law making is important in this process, for anyone become too powerful in a way that the Constitution is not being followed.
Socrates' idea of Government is a perfect republic that is led by a philosopher.
I think the leaders of United States will strongly disagree with Socrates Idea because Socrates strongly opposes democracy.
Socrates believed that Democracy is not an efficient way of Government because taking the public opinion's onto account is too much work and may become a hindrance for the Government's plan in the long term.
