As they аttempted tо write а new cоnstitutiоn in 1787, the frаmers were keenly aware the challenges of creating a long-lasting and effective government, and a key part of their thinking focused on a system of separation of powers and check and balances. In this essay, first, define this "Madisonian" system they ended up adopting. Specifically, how was power divided and how did the Constitution give each branch a the ability to “check” the other parts of government. Second, now explain the central political compromises that the framers reached to get agreement on this new system and how, in theory, such a system would limit the power of government and prevent tyranny. Last, considering several of many actions taken by the Trump administration, comment on whether this administration runs counter to the framer’s vision for the distribution of power and their emphasis on checks and balances.

Impоrtаnt & Difficult Pаth tо Chаnging the Cоnstitution In looking at changes to the US Constitution, we see a mixed picture. The original has certainly changed a good deal but it has also been exceedingly difficult to amend the document. In this essay, discuss the main areas of change, as presented in text and in lecture, that amendments to the Constitution have produced. Which amendments have proven most consequential across their history? Now, considering recent history, explain why it is so difficult for Congress to pass and for the States to ratify amendments. Conclude by discussing how, despite the difficulty of amending, the Constitution stays relevant and influetional in politics and society today. Length: 300-400 words in length.
