Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Baron de Montesquieu wrote The Spirit of Laws in 1748. Montesquieu declared that the powers of government should be separated and balanced against each other. This separation would keep any one person or group from gaining too much power. The powers of government should also be clearly defined and limited to prevent abuse.“No Power Corrupts so absolutely as absolute power.” Three Finger Activity
  2. Share that some people believe Congress is the most powerful of the branches because they can make lawsShare that the Framers left Article II the most vague of all the articles because they wanted George Washington to set the example for how future Presidents should actShare that some people believe that the Judicial Branch is the most powerful branch because they can interpret the law
