Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ Government \ power \ should \ be \ separated \ into \ three \ parts }}

Explanation:

Montesquieu was a French philosopher whose ideas influenced many governments, including the United States.

Montesquieu wrote a book called The Spirit of Law. In this book he recognized that excess power was not good, so he introduced an idea known as separation of power. This would separate the government into multiple branches, so that one person/group couldn't take over.

We see this in our US Constitution. There are three branchs: executive, judicial, and legislative. Each branch has different powers and can "check" the others.

The best answer choice is A: government power should be separated into three parts

Answer:

The Nixon Doctrine was one of many attempts by the president to encourage “<em>Vietnamization</em>” or withdrawing US soldiers and turning over defense duties to the South Vietnamese troops.

Explanation:

The expression <em>Vietnamization</em> in the context of the US withdrawing its forces from the Vietnam War means that Americans were leaving the territory so the conflict between North and South Vietnam would be handled by themselves.

President Richard Nixon issued a statement in 1969 where he announced that the US had been talking with South Vietnam leaders and American troops were going to be substituted by southvietnamese troops in the areas of the conflict. By this time American pacifists and veterans groups were massively protesting against the continuous presence of the US in the war.
