The speech by Chief Joseph was made during a war between the US army and the chief's Nez Perce tribe. As they were retreating, he made the speech because 750 people had to run away from the incoming American army. They were running away towards Idaho where they would have their freedom.

Answer:

The two themes I choose:

- <u>Separation of Powers</u>

The "Separation of Powers" states that governmental powers are to be evenly split between "x" amount of branches, x being determined by the Founding Fathers. Each of these branches are given a certain power (or job) that they need to do. For example, The Powers were separated and given to 3 branches:

Executive Branch: This branch is has the power to create a bill, as well as veto, line-veto, give ideas on what to change in a bill, create diplomatic relations with countries, ask congress to start wars, set up Judicial Judges.

Legislative Branch: This branch has the power to create bills, pass the bill, declare war, regulate commerce, control taxation and spending policies, veto or approve Judicial Judges.

Judicial Branch: This branch has the power to impeach Presidents, declare a law or bill as unconstitutional, have the last word on cases that reaches the Supreme Court.

- <u>Checks and Balances</u>

As stated above, there are 3 branches. Each of these branches (I will reiterate what i said) have the powers over the other, so as to not be able to overstep their bounds. Think of it as a triangle, in which they have more power and less power than the others.

<u>Executive Branch</u>:

<u>Powers</u>:

Veto/Pass Bills

Instate Judges

Start relations with other countries

<u>Weakness</u>:

Can be impeached

Veto can be overturned by Congress; Bills passed can be overturned by the Supreme Court

Must ask Congress to start wars if relations turn sour

<u />

<u>Legislative Branch:</u>

<u>Powers</u>:

Able to pass laws

Able to declare war

Able to regulate country and foreign commerce

Able to control taxes and how the government spends its funds

<u>Weakness</u>:

Congressmen & women can be replaced

Laws passed can be vetoed/declared unconstitutional

<u>Judicial Branch</u>:

<u>Powers</u>:

Life long term if appointed unless... (which would be put in weakness)

Able to declare laws unconstitutional

Able to have final word in how laws would be interpreted

<u>Weaknesses:</u>

Judges can be replaced

Rulings can be changed if the law is changed later on
