Pros and Cons of Presidential Power
Think about what you have learned regarding how the executive and legislative branches provide checks and balances, about the early American attitudes toward one individual having too much power, and about the circumstances in which some presidents expanded executive power. What are the pros and cons of a U.S. president having a lot of power?
Answers
The Pros and Cons of too many Presidential powers.
Pros.
The country has one undisputable leader, the President.
The President can lead the army. He is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.
Decision-making is quickly under the directives of the President.
Executive orders guarantee that decisions turn into effective actions.
Cons.
Too much power can turn into a dictatorship. That is why the other two branches need to do an effective job exerting their powers.
The President can veto laws creating a "legislation paralysis for a while."
The President can overwhelm decisions, not listening to what their advisors had to say or not taking into consideration the members of his cabinet.
He could exceed his authority when he wants to make treaties without the approval of the US Senate or wants to declare war without the approval of Congress.
The US President is the leader of the United States. He is the chief diplomat, he is the commander-in-chief of the US armed forces(Airforce, Navy, Army, Coastal Guard). He has the power to veto bills and sign bills. He can enforce legislation passed by Congress. He leads the executive branch and the Cabinet and appoints Supreme Court Justices.

What conclusion could a historian draw from examining these two primary sources
about the American Revolution?
Answers
Answer:
A. Differences of opinion existed about the right of Parliament to tax the colonists.
Explanation:
As seen from the two documents, we can know that the main issue dealt with here is the issue of taxation. Soame Jenyns' support for the taxation of the colonies by the British Parliament is contradicted by the 1776 New York General Assembly. The Assembly rather declared that every free state deserves "[an] exemption from the burden of taxes" that they had not imposed on themselves, but rather were imposed on them by the British government.
These two documents show that there were differing opinions about the Parliament's act of taxation.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.

C
U.S. planes could bomb Japan from there.
D

Answers
Answer:
C
Explanation:
While the Japanese were attacking US Naval fleets, it was a more defensive area on Iwo Jima.
The Japanese naval force was practically nonexistent by this time after the devastating battle of Midway against the Japanese navy.
The islands were important for supply lines indeed, but it wasn't the reason why the US invaded Iwo Jima in the first place.

Answer: Money, government corruption, and crime.
I could be wrong.
Answer:
The main issue these men faced was maintaining a big empire in conditions that were not conducive to great empires. Because the emperors lacked the military might and authority to keep their whole empire in order, they had to rely on local lords. It did, however, have three fundamental flaws. First, the Republic needed money to function; second, elected officials were rife with bribery and corruption; and third, crime was rampant throughout Rome. Famines and plagues, military catastrophes, civil wars, efforts to take supreme authority, rebellions within the provinces, assaults and invasions from beyond the borders, and migrating tribes encroaching on the frontiers of the Roman realm were all part of the Roman world's history.
