Is like what Sean Roberts said: That the government is made up of three branches, which are made to see each other to make sure no branch is dominating the other two. They are all the time trying to find a balance among the three branches (Judicial, Executive, and Legislative). The founders created this in order to have an effective government in decision making.
Also, Gridlock is when something isn't moving. You can also call it a stalemate. The government is meant to have gridlock. For example, it can take a WHILE, a few years, for a decision to be made on a certain issue, and when it has to do with something controversial it takes longer (like abortion, which still, to this day, is a heated topic in politics), which makes people complain about how "slow" the American government is when making decisions.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
The two elements that contribute to the tone of every speech are reason and emotion.
Explanation:
Whatever emotion you feel in the speech, should also be felt by the audience. So if your speech is serious, your audience should be serious. A consistent tone allows the audience to focus and for the speaker to effectively get their point across.
A=Edgar Poe didn't write "just anything" that would sell. If he did that, we probably wouldn't have ever heard of him for several reasons which are ultimately unimporatant to this question.
B=He claimed his first love was poetry, and he considered himself a poet before a regular, ordinary writer, but given the way the choices are worded, I'd say that B is still, with this in consideration, not the answer.
C=Edgar Poe did fabricate his personal life one time, when he created a backstory for his alias Arthur Gordon Pym.
D=True, he did invent it before Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ripped off Poe's detective C. Auguste Dupin.
E=Edgar Allan Poe was never insane. He was not that kind of man. He was more philosophical and aristocratic. Although in his youth he had toyed with an alcohol vice, he overcame it in his later years. He is only (and falsely) known for an alcoholic past because after Poe died, Poe's editor, Rufus Griswald slandered Poe and re-wrote Poe's biography, altering history away from the truth. Edgar Poe was never the "madman-alcoholic" that some people wrongfully believe he was.
