Which is one example of a President expanding the executive powers outlined in the Constitution?

The correct answer is " The Louisiana Purchase". The ability to buy property from foreign governments was not among these powers listed in Article IV of the Constitution – a fact that his political opponents, the Federalists, were eager to point out to the President Thomas Jefferson. According to Constitution Daily website -  "Jefferson rationalized his decision for the treaty to be sent to Congress without an amendment to John Breckinridge. “It is the case of a guardian, investing the money of his ward in purchasing an important adjacent territory; and saying to him when of age, I did this for your good,” he said in August 1803". Jefferson and his supporters faced an October 31, 1803 deadline to ratify the treaty or lose the purchase. Ironically, the deal to expand federal powers would need to be sold to the Federalists, who had advocated such a position before the treaty was signed, and supported by the Republicans, Jefferson’s party, which had opposed such a broad extension of presidential powers. The debate in the Senate only lasted for two days. On October 20, 1803, the Senate voted for ratification 24-7, and the treaty was signed on October 31, 1803. In the treaty’s aftermath, although some Federalists continued to view the Louisiana Purchase as unconstitutional, the purchase was never questioned in court.

The second alternative is correct.

The American Constitution does not approve the purchase of other countries institutionally. However, President Thomas Jefferson made a treatise on negotiation. And executing treaties is a constitutional power of the president of the Republic.

1. Why do you think the framers put the President in charge of the military instead of a military general?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Explanation:

While the President customarily delegates supreme command of the forces in active service, there is no constitutional reason why he should do so, and he has been known to resolve personally important questions of military policy. Lincoln early in 1862 issued orders for a general advance in the hopes of stimulating McClellan to action; Wilson in 1918 settled the question of an independent American command on the Western Front; Truman in 1945 ordered that the bomb be dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.206 As against an enemy in the field, the President possesses all the powers which are accorded by international law to any supreme commander. “He may invade the hostile country, and subject it to the sovereignty and authority of the United States.”207 In the absence of attempts by Congress to limit his power, he may establish and prescribe the jurisdiction and procedure of military commissions, and of tribunals in the nature of such commissions, in territory occupied by Armed Forces of the United States, and his authority to do this sometimes survives cessation of hostilities.208 He may employ secret agents to enter the enemy’s lines and obtain information as to its strength, resources, and movements.209 He may, at least with the assent of Congress, authorize commercial intercourse with the enemy.210 He may also requisition property and compel services from American citizens and friendly aliens who are situated within the theater of military operations when necessity requires, thereby incurring for the United States the obligation to render “just compensation.”211 By the same warrant, he may bring hostilities to a conclusion by arranging an armistice, stipulating conditions that may determine to a great extent the ensuing peace.212 He may not, however, effect a permanent acquisition of territory,213 though he may govern recently acquired territory until Congress sets up a more permanent regime.214

This semester, you have an assignment in which data collected from a previous assignment is included in the new project. Yes, we need to cite this information because it is academic practice to cite the previous work you have done.

In another instance, although you credited your sources and wrote a research paper, you forgot to record the page numbers for the in-text citations. You insert page numbers without double-checking them because the project is due in few hours. You cited someone, but you did so improperly, thus this is also a violation.

Following the right academic practice, while one submits their works, is essential as per the ethics.

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Culture and economics.

Explanation:

Nations, given the wide interconnection that globalization has generated, have signed huge amounts of treaties with other nations, in which economic, political, cultural, social, border, security, and all legal issues that otherwise affect or benefit said countries are agreed.

But governments, in all situations, must take as their main precaution not to directly or indirectly harm the economies of the countries involved, nor in any way harm the cultural identity of those nations.

Thus, these limitations regulate the framework of agreeability under which the nations will agree on certain conditions of the treaties.
