Answer:

The Washington Quote that the question refers to is " “…we pour legislation into the senatorial saucer to cool  it..."

With that quote, George Washington explained his position in favor of a bicameral legislature, and in favor of the U.S. Senate. Washington's idea was for the Senate to work as a counterpower to the bills coming from the House, acting as a "cooler" or moderator of the legislation that comes from the House.

How does the distribution of Senate seats among the States illustrate the principle of federalism?

The Senate is composed of 100 senators, 2 from each state, regardless of state geographic size or population. This illustrates the principle of federalism because each state is considered an equal member of the Union that is deserving of the same political representation in the Federal Government.

What did bleeding kansas demonstrated what popular sovereignty was
Nookie1986 [14]
Bleeding Kansas (1855-1861) consisted of millions of dollars in property damage, and dozens dead, due to the onslaught of violence from pro-slavery Border Ruffians who clashed with Free-Staters (jayhawkers) on the matter of slavery. Eventually, this would lead to the voting of slavery's justification in Kansas, but obviously the popular sovereignty was coated in blood.
