Answer:

Frederick William (German: Friedrich Wilhelm; 16 February 1620 – 29 April 1688) was Elector of Brandenburg and Duke of Prussia, thus ruler of Brandenburg-Prussia, from 1640 until his death in 1688. A member of the House of Hohenzollern, he is popularly known as "the Great Elector" (der Große Kurfürst) because of his military and political achievements. Frederick William was a staunch pillar of the Calvinist faith, associated with the rising commercial class. He saw the importance of trade and promoted it vigorously. His shrewd domestic reforms gave Prussia a strong position in the post-Westphalian political order of north-central Europe, setting Prussia up for elevation from duchy to kingdom, achieved under his son and successor.

Judges keep the country safe from political majorities because
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

D) judges are able to strike down any laws they feel are immoral.

Explanation:

None of these are truly correct.

Federal Judges, especially in the Supreme Court, are nominated by the President, but needs to be approved by the two houses of congress. They are also in court for life, unless they break the constitution. These Judges, while they have their own beliefs, are supposed to be "3rd party", however, evidently the judges will rule based on what they believe is right.

A) is not exactly right, because administrations can nominate judges when there is a vacant space, either from the death of a judge or the judge stepping down.

B) is incorrect, because the judges are supposed to rule based on how the law affects the constitutional rights of the citizens of the country. They neither have the obligation to vote Democratic nor Republican.

C) is incorrect, because they are only able to nominate workers who can help them by hiring them. They do not nominate anybody.

D) is technically incorrect, but is your best answer. They do not strike down laws that "they feel are immoral", but that they strike down laws that break the constitution in any shape or form.
