John Locke.

One of the key phrases in the Declaration “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” was from Locke’s Two Treatises of Government. Locke developed the idea that all mankind is created equally and that our fundamental human rights (for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness) should never be taken by the government.

The original writers of the Declaration of Independence, namely Jefferson, took inspiration and included some of Locke’s ideas.

sasho [114]

The correct answer is true.

It is true that Sir Isaac Newton not only described the law of gravity, but he also discovered a mathematical relationship to measure the force of gravity between any two objects.

It is well known that Isaac Newton was a man ahead of his time. He had a brilliant mathematician mind and could compare the acceleration of the moon with the acceleration of things on our planet. He discovered the dependence of gravity upon the distance of different objects.

It all started with the fall of an apple from the tree and ended up as the Isaac Newton Law of Universal Gravitation.

Explain why a President might make an executive agreement rather than negotiate a formal treaty. In your answer, include one adv
Scrat [10]
An advantage is that it takes way less time to do it than to create a formal treaty since the President would not need consent from the congress for an executive agreement. A formal treaty can, however, last longer because it is more difficult to cancel, so if it's good, then it is also safer for it to be formal.
