The correct answer is C. John Locke.

John Locke wrote a famous book, called Two Treatises of Government, in which he explains his philosophies on how governments should be structured. In this book, he discusses several different ideas such as the concept of natural rights, the ability of citizens to overthrow a tyrannical government, and how the source of government power lies in its citizens. All three of these ideas are implemented into the US Declaration of Independence which was written by Thomas Jefferson.

Answer:

The bombing of Hiroshima is and Nagaski is one of the most important events in history. Due to the fact that this affected and still is affecting human kind in Hiroshima and Nagaski. This all occurred because of Hiroshimas military and to the intend to make Japan surrender, in cause to end World War ll, they later decided to bomb Nagaski too. Over 200,000 died and thousands more were hurt in this tragity, but some surviors live to tell the story of this historic moment. Two of those surviors were Sunao Tsuboi and Shigemitsu Tanaka, victims of the Hiroshima and Nagaski bombing on August 6, 1945 and August 9, of 1945.

While Sunao Tsuboi was a 20 year old man heading to collage in Hiroshima when this occurred, he was buned from head to toe he stated in NYTimes.com. He knew at this moment it would be the end for him, he layed next to a bridge. Until a classmate found and approched him, he took him to a military hsopital where he got medical help. Till this day he is a retired worker, with a wife, children, and grandchildern. He has worked in office for the President and urged and stated this to the president to "work for world peace after he leave office".

Shigemitsu Tanaka, was almost five when he witness this tragity. He discribed everything as white, windows braking, and a huge thunderclap in the sky. He was only playing under a tree when he took cover and tried to protect himself. Later his mother suffered from repeated illnesses she worked as an elementary instructor. His father later died from cancer after 12 years of the bombing. Tanka said he "smelled burning flesh and moans", he also stated that Obama should clear nuclear wepons for good and hoped he would sit and listen to survivors.

I would not defend nor support this tragity due to the fact that many innocent people were hurt or killed. In my opionion I think the United States should have used a diffrerent strategy to the point where no human being should have been hurt. Sometimes I do not understand why the United States didn't take percuation in this situation for the people. They always use the moto "For the good of the people" but did not lead up to this at the end. So in conculsion I DO NOT support or defend the bombing of Hiroshima or Nagaski.

In at least two paragraphs, discuss whether you believe the framers of the U.S. Constitution created a democracy.

kipiarov [429]

Certainly not. The United States has never, since its founding, consisted of a small number of citizens, still less of citizens that could practically assemble in one place at one time and debate their actions. A pure democracy in this classical Greek city-state sense was never practical, and was not seriously considered.

What the Framers created was a constitutional representative republic. Sovereignty is vested in the people, like a democracy (and unlike a constitutional monarchy), but the people do not rule directly. Instead, they elect representatives, at regular intervals, and these rule in the peoples' stead. Their powers are limited, first, by the fact that they are elected for only short terms, and must be re-elected if they wish to continue in power, and secondly, and much more importantly, by the Constitution itself, which puts express written limits on their powers even between elections.
