<em>Correct response:</em>
In a PRESIDENTIAL government, there is a greater separation of powers between executive and legislative than in a PARLIAMENTARY system of government.
Details:
In a parliamentary system (such as that of Great Britain), the main executive branch office is that of the prime minister. The prime minister is the leader of whichever party receives the greatest number of seats in parliament when elections are held. So there is a direct connection between parliamentary power and executive power.
In a presidential system (such as that of the United States), there is a separation of powers between the executive branch and the legislative branch.
The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States ('XIV Amendment') is one of the post-Civil War amendments, and includes, among others, the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868.
The amendment provides a broad definition of national citizenship, which overrides the decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), who had excluded slaves and their descendants, from possessing constitutional rights. It requires states to provide equal protection before the law to all persons (not just citizens) within their jurisdictions. The importance of the Fourteenth Amendment was exemplified when it was interpreted to prohibit racial segregation in public schools in the Brown v. Case. Board of Education.
Jim crow laws were state and local laws that enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States
