The correct answer is:
Deciding which laws are legal and should be enforced
Explanation:
The Executive branch of the United States government is composed by the President, who is also the Commander in-Chief of the armed forces, Vice-President, Federal agencies and the Cabinet. This branch is in charge of the general administration of the country, the national security and defense, and for implementing and carrying-out the laws made by the Congress (Legislative branch) and foreign affairs.
As part of the Checks and Balance system,<em> the President has the power to approve or veto a bill before it becomes a law, but the branch in charge of interpreting and deciding which laws are constitutional (legal) and should be enforced is the Judicial branch. </em>
This was the more radical position of the American settlers and Tejanos in Texas. Houston was selected as Commander-in-Chief at the convention to declare Texan independence in March 1836, and he signed the Texas Declaration of Independence on March 2, 1836, his 43rd birthday.
The answer is a, he miscalculated, since the Americas hadn't been discovered by europeans (the native americans were there first) they did not account for america in their calculations
