If the U.S. constitution began as suggested by the cartoon what might the impact be on the Supreme Court?

History

The cartoon you are referring to shows three business men in front of the U.S. Founding Fathers. One of them, acting as a spokesperson, interpellates the writers of the Constitution by asking them to scratch the first words of the Constitution ("We, the people..") and replace them with the statement "We, the anonymous corporate donors, untraceable foreign contributors and assorted billionaires.." So, if the U.S. Constitution began as suggested by the cartoon, the Supreme Court would make decisions that favored corporations ("we, the anonymous corporate donors") over individuals ("we, the people"). Fortunately this is not the case, but, throughout its history, and depending upon the Chief Justice who has led it, the Supreme Court has sometimes been especially friendly to business.

What was the Japanese government's perspective on the Pearl Harbor attack?
sertanlavr [38]
The Japanese truly believed that America was going to attack them, so out of paranoia, they decided to attack first. Pearl Harbor had the airrafts and ships that would be used in war, so it was a perfect target for them because it would give them more time to prepare themselves against America. Unfortunetly for Japan, America was able to mass produce its aircrafts and ships and managed to quickly replace all the damaged vehicles.
I hope this helps.

Which of the following was an effect of nativism in the United States in the 1920s?
bearhunter [10]
First question: D- people who were living in America at the time, didn't want other people to come in and "steal their jobs". To me, nativism (at the time) was a pretty stupid thing, considering how many of the people who didn't want anyone else coming into the country, were immigrants themselves.

Second question: D is the closest answer, seeing as Roosevelt wanted to improve relations with Central and South America.

Hope this helps!

What what was the purpose of Blackstone's commentaries on the laws of England
dem82 [27]
The purpose of Blackstone's commentaries on the laws of England was to provide a source of common law that most people could read. The work was divided into four volumes: the rights of persons, the rights of things, private wrongs and public wrongs. They met a need for laws and rules at a time when both of these were very skewed and unclear. Blackstone's commentaries was important to the development of English law and the development of the American legal system.
