History

First of all, it's very important to point out that COMMON LAW based it's judicial decisions on precedent, this means that rulings were based on previous rulings made by other judges. This system has existed since the Middle Ages, and it has spread to countries like The United States of America, for example.

Trial by jury and applying the law equally throughout the land were also two other fundamental principles of Common Law. Juries were formed by people with no legal knowledge and without biased assumptions in order to make the final decision as unbiased as possible. Regarding equality, there was a principle also called "principle of equality" that established that every man and woman were equal under the eyes of the law, also making sure that the law was equally and impartially applied throughout the English land.

The only principle that is not part of the Common Law is establishing England as a Constitutional Monarchy.

England was established as a Constitutional Monarchy after the Glorious Revolution of 1688, limiting the power of the reigning monarch. Nowadays, the monarch is politically neutral and mostly has a ceremonial role.

Please help this is due in 15 minutes. Does the line of presidential succession
Mekhanik [1.2K]

The presidential line of succession is a lengthy list. The start of the list reads:

  1. Vice President
  2. Speaker of the House of Representatives
  3. President pro tempore of the Senate
  4. Secretary of State

and that's the order in which the succession happens. There are many others waiting in line behind the Secretary of State. I chose not to list them because it would make this post way too lengthy.

This list makes sense because it's listing senior members in politics, and those members are part of the political process. On the other hand, members like the Speaker of the House, or president pro tempore of the senate don't really make much sense here. These members may be of a different political party of the president and could contradict the president's goals.

In my opinion, it's best to list out the cabinet members after the vice president. The secretary of state seems like a good cabinet member to start with, then secretary of defense is the next best in line. These two positions deal with foreign affairs which is a handy thing to have in time of crisis. The secretary of treasury is also a good consideration as well since many crises involve money in some way.
