The man who became president of France in December 1848 was Prince Louis Napoleon Bonaparte.
He was 40 years old when he won the election. . He was a small reserved, enigmatic man with chestnut hair , brown beard and a pointed moustache.
He won one of the most remarkable victories in French History, though he had never held public office or distinguished himself in any worthwhile capacity.

False, The only requirement to become a federal judge is being appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. In theory, the President could appoint an undocumented immigrant, and if the Senate confirmed that appointment, that person would be a federal judge. Unlikely, but possible.
We have to remember that there was a big difference between the treaties themselves and the paper documents that European-Americans used to record those treaties. For many Native Americans, a treaty was an oral agreement between governments. It was methodically memorized and often sealed with an exchange of gifts. In the eastern part of North America, wampum belts (which were shells strung together to create images) served as official records of these treaties, and were draped over a speaker's body when the treaty was being recited later on, much as Europeans might read aloud the text of a written agreement between two European countries.
For Natives, the oral agreement, along with these wampum belts, WERE the treaty, and the paper document they signed was just some odd European habit that they often simply tolerated. Many of the Native leaders who signed these treaties could not read what they were signing, and even if they could they did not recognize the documents as being the official record of what was agreed on.
