How do American citizens exercise popular sovereignty?

History

Margarita [4]2 years ago

Popular sovereignty is the concept that all power is ultimately derived from the people. This means that every time you vote or express an opinion to a local leader/ politician, you are shaping the way this country is run. The problem? Old while men are the ones with free time on their hands, so they are the ones going out to vote and becoming/ influencing politicians, which makes the national vote a reflection of- not the actual public's opinion, no- but  instead the opinions of those who have lots of free time on their hands... (*cough, cough* <em>white nationalists)</em>

Americans express popular sovereignty every day... kind of.

What is not a reason for the ongoing crisis in ukraine? ukraine gave its nuclear weapons to western powers. russia's geopolitica
Katena32 [7]
<span>The economic civil war between eastern and western Ukraine is not a reason for the ongoing crisis, because said economic civil war doesn't really exist. Any economic conflicts existing are by and large between Ukraine and Russia, involving gas pipeline disputes. Meanwhile, the other choices all led to or built up to the current crisis. The surrender of nuclear weapons mandated by the Budapest memorandum led to the closer Ukraine-West ties that have Russia initiating its annexation to consolidate power and fulfill it's geopolitical ambitions, and the election and subsequent deposition of Viktor Yanukovych exacerbated the instability in the political environment, and furthered the divisions between the different regional and cultural areas, some of which have significant portions of Russian-sympathizing citizens.</span>

How did a more advanced knowledge of monsoon winds help stimulate trade from Africa to Asia
matrenka [14]
Monsoons are one of the most destructive natural phenomena in Asia, but they also limit Africa's trade with the Asian continent, as navigation is severely affected by strong monsoon winds; this affects trade between the two continents, as merchant ships travel from Africa to across the Indian Ocean (which is the monsoon zone), so understanding when and how the winds form will help keep the cargo ships and merchandise, thus increasing trade between Afrika and Asia.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Franklin Roosevelt was able to see the views of the South and the views of the North in his travels. In Georgia, he was able to relate to southerners, so he made sure to acknowledge them in his policies during presidency. :)
