Answer: prevent decisions based on the pressures of maintaining elected office

Explanation: The Supreme court is the judicial branch of the federal government and the highest court in the country. It has jurisdiction over all federal & state courts. The

main purpose of the Supreme court is to interpret the law and defend the Constitution. Often they must hear the cases of lower federal courts and ensure that laws follow the Constitution.

Supreme Court justices have life tenure, which means that they serve until they die, resign or retire, unless they are impeached and removed from office by the Senate for wrongful behaviour. The purpose of this life tenure is to make certain the highest court of the country decide cases based on merit, and not have to worry about the pressure associated with elected office.

Morgarella [4.7K]

In 1989, a group of students led a protest in Tiananman Square, in Central China. After the Cultural Revolution has ended with the death Mao Zedong in 1979, there was economic and civil unrest. Because of this movement spearheaded by Mao, China faced poverty that they had never seen before. Shortly before his death Dong Xioaping was made the de facto leader of China in 1978. Reforms were set up by him and this led to a huge downturn. Deaths of prime political figures and a disembodied education system were to follow in only 11 years time. In 1989, a group of brave students took arms in the forms of words and signs to protest to demand scholarships for higher education, these "riots" were seen by the un-democratic and corrupt government of China as a threat, and military action was taken. It resulted in a huge causality rate, that of a massacre.

How does Lucas say the signers of the Declaration of Independence created the sense that war was inevitable?
MArishka [77]

If you study the declaration of independence closely, it us clear that the declaration demands rights. And the oppressive regimes of the world would be unwilling to grant those rights. In order to achieve those rights, one will have to fight. And that will pave the way for war. It has become evident now after centuries. United States believed in the rights and freedom of the people. That had the U.S entering the world wars. All the wars after that too, were basically based on this very idea. FREEDOM.
