History
1 answer:
Mekhanik [1.2K]3 years ago
4 0

The presidential line of succession is a lengthy list. The start of the list reads:

  1. Vice President
  2. Speaker of the House of Representatives
  3. President pro tempore of the Senate
  4. Secretary of State

and that's the order in which the succession happens. There are many others waiting in line behind the Secretary of State. I chose not to list them because it would make this post way too lengthy.

This list makes sense because it's listing senior members in politics, and those members are part of the political process. On the other hand, members like the Speaker of the House, or president pro tempore of the senate don't really make much sense here. These members may be of a different political party of the president and could contradict the president's goals.

In my opinion, it's best to list out the cabinet members after the vice president. The secretary of state seems like a good cabinet member to start with, then secretary of defense is the next best in line. These two positions deal with foreign affairs which is a handy thing to have in time of crisis. The secretary of treasury is also a good consideration as well since many crises involve money in some way.

Which is an example of the expansion of the citizenship in the united states since its founding?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An example of the expansion of citizenship is Option B: The Nineteenth Amendment barred voting discrimination based on sex.

Explanation:

There is a lot of ambiguity surrounding citizenship and women but essentially before the right to vote, the citizenship rights a woman enjoyed were tied largely to her husband. She therefore had what is called derivative citizenship. A husband and wife became the same legal person under most laws and it was the husband's responsibility to act on behalf of his wife. She was not allowed to vote or hold property in her own name unless she had the permission of her husband in most cases. An American woman who married a foreign citizen would also lose her American citizenship. The assumption was that the woman would assume the citizenship of her husband, but the laws of many foreign countries did not make this automatically so. Women would become stateless in many cases by marrying a foreign spouse. This was especially the case in the marriages of American women and Asian men who were subject to legislation like the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 that denied them citizenship.
