Explanation:

The Europeans competed to increase wealth and power by expanding empires to America, they decided to go to Jamestown, Virginia (home to the ruins of the first permanent English settlement in North America.)

When the settlers arrived Jamestown was located on a narrow peninsula bordered on three sides, which later changed location to an island in the James River.

The reason as to why they chose a location near water, was because the location could be easily defended from attacks by sea, the water along the shore was deep enough for ships to dock, and because they had a good supply of freshwater.

Marta_Voda [28]

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.

A. Describe a power of the president used in the scenario.

The power that President Bill Clinton used in this scenario is his power as Commander-in-Chief- of the US military forces (Army, Navy, Air Force, Gaurd Cost).

B. Explain one way in which the War Powers Resolution might affect the scenario.

The War Powers Resolution might affect the above-mentioned scenario in that this act forces the President to inform Congress for a declaration of war if he wants to send military forces to a specific region. This legislation requires the President to inform Congress 48 hours before sending the military abroad.

C. Explain one reason why it is difficult for Congress to check the power of the president to commit troops despite the War Powers Resolution.

It could be difficult for Congress to check the power of the President because the executive could argue that this was not a declaration of war, but just a way to help Haiti by sending some military forces to fight against atrocities perpetrated by Haiti's former leaders and to oversee a transition to democracy. So he was not taking to declare war.
