The principle of American democracy that is best demonstrated by that congressional action is the principle of Check and Balance. This is because this principle ensures that one branch of government makes sure that another branch does not abuse of its power or make mistakes with it and balances the power that each branch has. When the government abused its power by sending Japanese Americans to relocation camps during World War II, there was no balancing, so there had to be a compensation further in time. Congress then checked the situation, acknowledged the mistake and balanced the stakes by compensation of $20,000.

How did president Reagans improve the status of women during his time in the office
Vesna [10]

Answer:

He appointed the first female justice to the Supreme Court.

Explanation:

The Presidency of Ronald Reagan was what one would deem anti-feminist because of his belief in the traditional domestic world where women stay at home and mind the housework. Moreover, his agenda of anti-feminism would make it a period of dread for women, even till he was elected to be the President of the United States.

Ironically, his presidency would also bring a huge change in the feminist world. It would herald a period of progress for women, despite his anti-feminist agenda. One event that he helped improve the status of women was when he chooses to appoint Sandra Day O'Connor as the Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. She would be the first female justice to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

What is the relationship between the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights? (1 point)
lesantik [10]

The correct answer to this question is D. This is because A, implies that the Declaration of Independece guarantees the individual rights, but it briefly mentions some of this freedoms, such as those of life, liberty and the pursuit of hapiness in order to argue the reaons why the decision of the States to declare themselves independent from the British Crown, so it does not really explain these rights.

Regarding B, the bill of rights, that is, the first 10 Ammendments of the Constitution, does not deal with the reasons for revolution, as this body of ammendments is the result of the evolution of the society, its needs and demands: they were created along the time, as a result of a process, so they are not entirely linked to the reasons for the revolution.

And finally, C probably best describes the Constitution, which is the one that creates the Government as it certainly outlines its structure as we see it today, and in any case replaces the Declaration of Independence which doesn´t really deal with the creation of the Government.

As a conclusion, the Declaration of Independence is the political statement which sets the will of the new nation, whereas the Constitution, as the result of this initial statement, creates the Government, that at the same time, recognizes the individual rights as an expression of the Declaration and is adopted by the Constitution to guarantee the enforceability of these Rights.
