I won't write a developed paragraph about this subject, though I will argue that American democracy is based upon it's people. The United States is a democratic republic, therefore people vote on representatives that make up the Senate. Depending upon population, each state will have one or more representatives that will voice ideas and vote upon decisions. Therefore you're vote has a huge impact upon American society.
No. In fact, though people are encouraged to vote, the majority of the vote will decide the person elected. Also such as Andrew Jackson in 1825, the electoral college will decide the winner, giving the person with the most electoral votes the office.
Seat belts stop you tumbling around inside the car if there is a collision. Upon sensing a collision the seat belts lock in place. When the car crashes, there is no unbalanced force acting on the person, so they continue forward (Newton's First Law).
The english statesman, George Calvert, projected the founding of the North American province of *Maryland*, in an effort to find a sanctuary for practicing Roman Catholics. The charter made by George made *Maryland* the first colony controlled by a single proprietor. Joint-stock companies controlled the other colonies, but the Maryland charter granted rare autonomy and control to the Calvert family. Lord Baltimore (George) could govern the colony similar to an independent country.
