Answer 1

Answer:

Presidential candidates should not be given funds from the federal government to run campaigns.

Explanation:

This is a normative statement since it sets a norm. The norm is a rule that must be followed by members of society. If the people comply with the norm / rule, they will behave in an expected way and this will be for the benefit of society as a whole. In this case, presidential candidates should run their campaigns with any fund other than the one coming from the federal government, which certainly manages  the texpayers' money.
