What did the Constitutional Convention think was so great about the Electoral College, according to Hamilton?

Determine whether each description applies to the royalists, roundheads, or both

Rom4ik [11]

-Puritans and member of lower classes: The roundheads

-Supporters of Charles I: The royalists (also known as "Cavaliers")

-Fought in the English civil war: Both of them (They were the main two sides on the civil war)

-Wore richly decorated clothing: The royalists (Even though this wasn't the prime objective, they became well known for this)

-Led by Oliver Cromwell: The roundheads.

-Were aristrocats: The royalists

-Emerged victorious in the civil war: The roundheads.

Explanation: The English civil war was a series of three main armed and political conflicts. Before the English civil war and it's outcome, the Parliament of England hadn't had a big influence on the goverment system. In fact, the Parliament didn't have the authority to make any desition and their role was only to advice the King and only after the monarch himself summoned them and even more important, the King had the power to disolve it at his will. This was due to the belief that the monarch is designated by God and, therefore, he's the only one capable of ruling his land.

This historical context provoced that some members of the society, specially puritans and lower class members, started to look for a change. The objective was simple: to give the Parliament the authority to participate and make desitions. They suported the Parliament and the idea of having a role on the goverment desitions, they started to repudiate what they considered to be "royalist" or courtly fashion (to wear decorated clothing, the use of long ringlets, etc.). For this reason they decided not only to wear their common clothes but also to closely crop their hair, therefore,<em> this people, whose leade was Oliver Cromwell, were called "roundheads"</em> by some higher classes in an act of derision.

On the other hand, the royalists supported the King (Charles I) and the idea of absolute power for the monarch, most of them were aristrocats. Both sides adopted the nicknames given by the other side, nicknames that were originated from the mockery ("Roundheads" and "Cavaliers")

The outcome of the civil war was:

- The execution of King Charles I.

- The exile of the King's son.

- The monarch can't gover without the Parliament consent.

HELP!!! Why is selective incorporation important?

Sholpan [36]

So big picture, selective incorporation, it's the doctrine where judicial decisions incorporate rights from the Bill of Rights to limit laws from states that are perceived to infringe on those rights, and the justification comes from the 14th Amendment. It refers to the legal doctrine the U. S. Supreme Court has employed over the years to extend the rights guaranteed by the U. S. Constitution to the states. Through selective incorporation, the Court has ruled that states may not pass laws restricting many of the important rights enshrined in the Constitution.

Selective incorporation is a doctrine written into the Constitution that protects American citizens from their states' enacting of laws that could infringe upon their rights. Selective incorporation is not a law, but a doctrine that has been established and confirmed time and again by the United States Supreme Court.

The idea of selective incorporation dates to when the Constitution was being drafted, with the founding fathers heatedly debating the power of state governments versus the power of the federal government. In the end, the Constitution was signed and enacted without any definitive conclusion on the issue. In the 1833 case of Barron v. Baltimore, the Supreme Court ruled that the Bill of Rights applied only to the federal government, meaning that states were able to pass their own laws violating the Bill of Rights without any intervention by the federal government. It wasn't until 1868 that Congress passed the 14th Amendment, forbidding states from denying anyone the freedom to life, liberty, and property without due process, thus reversing the decision of Barron v. Baltimore. Beginning in the 1920s, the Supreme Court ruled on many cases about the protection of the Bill of Rights within state laws. Selective incorporation is based on this approach to choosing which clauses of the Bill of Rights apply to state governments. As the Supreme Court continued to rule on cases challenging state governments' ability to violate the Bill of Rights, justices began to debate the application of the 14th Amendment. Some felt that the amendment applied to the all amendments in the Bill of Rights, prohibiting states from the same violations as the federal government, while others felt that only portions of those basic rights should be incorporated. In the 1937 case of Palko v. Connecticut, the Court rejected total incorporation and adopted the doctrine of selective incorporation as well as the guidelines for applying it.

You are Lincoln and the Heads of the Union Army. How will you plan defend/attack the Confederacy, and reunite the broken United

Ganezh [65]

Because senators serve longer terms than House members and because they represent the views of their entire State, senators are expected to focus less on the interests of small localities and more on the "big picture" of government and of their entire State.
