On February 9, 2016, President Barack Obama released his budget proposal for the 2017 fiscal year. Facing a Republican Congress, many declared the plan "dead on arrival." Among the cited issues was Obama's request for $582.7 billion in discretionary spending for defense, which many Republicans believed was not enough. Which of the following most accurately explains the interaction between the president and the Congress regarding the defense budget?
1) Congress passes a budget for the entire federal government, including defense, but it must consider the president's proposal because the president may veto the bill.
2) The president introduces a specific budget bill for defense spending, but Congress uses its power of legislative oversight to set up a negotiation process with the president.
3) Congress has the enumerated power to raise revenue, but it is forced to work with the president because the president has the power to determine spending for each department in the upcoming fiscal year.
4) The president can create a budget for defense spending, but Congress has the power to execute laws and operate the government, which can affect how much money is actually spent.

What would be an example of De Facto Segregation?
Racially focused neighborhoods forming during urbanization
Civil Rights Act of 1964
Plessy vs. Ferguson "Separate, but equal"
Answer:
Racially focused neighborhoods forming during urbanization.
Explanation:
De Facto Segregation was a term used in the 60's that meant schools would not publicly segregate students, but in reality, school segregation continued.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibited racial discrimination in public places.
This would not be an example of De Facto Segregation.
The Plessy vs. Ferguson "Separate, but equal" case kept racial segregation constitutional, because it was "fair" in their eyes.
An example of separate but equal is: Black people and White people had to drink from separate drinking fountains, but it was "fair" because both of them technically had drinking fountains.
This is not an example of De Facto Segregation because this is public segregation made "fair".
Racially focused neighborhoods formed during urbanization caused schools to become racially separated. It happened because white people would all go to one rich school in district, and black people who lived in another neighborhood would go to another school.
This is a an example of De Facto Segregation because it caused the schools to become separate without the direct use of segregation.
PLEASE HELP! This is about the Emancipation Proclamation and I can't seem to comprehend it.
"How does the document define the areas where slaves were to be freed?"
Answer:
Hope this helps
Explanation:
Initially, the Emancipation Proclamation effectively freed only a small percentage of the slaves, those who were behind Union lines in areas not exempted. Most slaves were still behind Confederate lines or in exempted Union-occupied areas. Secretary of State William H. Seward commented, "We show our sympathy with slavery by emancipating slaves where we cannot reach them and holding them in bondage where we can set them free." Had any slave state ended its secession attempt before January 1, 1863, it could have kept slavery, at least temporarily. The Proclamation only gave the Lincoln Administration the legal basis to free the slaves in the areas of the South that were still in rebellion on January 1, 1863. It effectively destroyed slavery as the Union armies advanced south and conquered the entire Confederacy.[

Explain how, although it wiped-out over 200,000 mostly-innocent people, dropping the Atomic Bomb on Japan can be viewed as a GOOD thing.
Well.... The only GOOD thing to come out of the Atomic Bombs dropped on Japan was that it ended the war in the Pacific, and WWII as a whole.
After Germany surrendered on May 7th, 1945, the Japanese were frankly disgusted. They said that Germany should have fought to the last man and last bullet before laying down their arms. To the Japanese, to surrender willing was a cowardly disgrace, and was the reason for many of the kamikaze attacks on U.S. ships. It was also the reason why Japanese pilots carried pistols in their planes because if they were shot down and just so happened to survive, they needed to kill themselves instead of having the humiliation of being captured.
So, Japan made it very clear that unlike Germany, they would fight tooth and nail till the very end. At the time, the U.S. saw the Atomic Bomb as a cheaper alternative to losing men and equipment in a seemingly never-ending battle against the Japanese Empire.
