Answer:
So there is no one person who is too powerful in the government.
Explanation:
The US was formed after the colonial leaders agreed that King George III was a tyrant, and they wanted a say in their own government. Once they won the revolution, many feared that they would end up with another absolute ruler like many European countries had at the time. The original government, the Articles of Confederation, show this fear as there was no strong federal government or leader. This didn't work out so the founding fathers created the Constitution which split the government between those who make the laws (legislative branch), approves and carrys out the laws (executive branch) and decide whether the laws are Constitutional (judicial branch). With this set up, no one person can become an absolute ruler or dictator.

Answer: Use of state militia to quell insurrection.
Explanation:
In acting quickly to supress an insurrection that threatened the unity of the United States by the use of state militia, President Washington set a precedent that would eventually become law with the Insurrection Act.
By this precedent, Presidents are empowered to raise state militias to quell rebellion if normal civilian judicial procedure fails and after they have ordered the people involved to disperse.
This precedent has been used by quite a number of presidents including Ulysses Grant, John Kennedy and Dwight Eisenhower as they attempted to enforce laws calling for equality.
It marked the first peaceful transfer of power between political parties in American history. (the first option.)
