Should members of the U.S. Congress be “delegates” or “trustees” for their constituents? Which do you believe serves the best interests of the members of Congress and of the constituents?

Assignment 2: Three Branches of Federal GovernmentThe Framers of the Constitution, to ensure that no single person or entity had a monopoly on power, instituted a system of checks and balances. Thus, the United States has three branches of government: the executive, the legislative and the judicial. Each of these branches has a distinct and essential role in the function of the government and also exercises some control over the actions of the other branches.Research the three branches of government using the textbook and Argosy University online library resources. Respond to one question from each of the question sets below.A. Legislative (Pick one to respond to)Should members of the U.S. Congress be “delegates” or “trustees” for their constituents? Which do you believe serves the best interests of the members of Congress and of the constituents?Should members of Congress vote according to their own views or the views of the constituents who elected them?B. Executive (Pick one to respond to)Which president do you feel was the greatest and which president do you feel was the worst in U.S. history? Why?What are the qualifications required to be president? Describe at least one other qualification you feel should also be required and explain why.After serving the maximum two terms as president, should an ex-president be allowed to be reelected after an intermediate term of another president? Why or why not?C. Judicial (Pick one to respond to)How can the U.S. Supreme Court’s power be curbed? Is it important that curbing the Court’s power should not be easy? Why or why not?The Constitution does not stipulate that judges must have a law degree or legal training. Yet all judges appointed are law school graduates. Why? Is it possible that a judge could come from another field? Why or why not?Write your response to each question in 150–200 words.

What is more important, spreading the values of the Federation, or respecting the independence of the people of another planet?

Link to video “A Private Little War” https://vimeo.com/81912586The crew of the Enterprise are sworn to protect the “Prime Directive,” the order never to interfere with the native development of another culture. And yet, in “A Private Little War,” Kirk and his officers must wrestle with the decision to help arm the friends of the Federation against the tribes aided by the Klingons. This episode was intentionally written to represent the competition between the United States and the Soviet Union in far-off theaters of war like Vietnam.Do you think that Kirk should obey the Prime Directive in this episode — or for that matter, ever? What is more important, spreading the values of the Federation, or respecting the independence of the people of another planet? Also spend a portion of the paper comparing this view to the Soviet Union. Length of answer should be 2-3 pages. The best essays will include a strong thesis statement, smooth transitions between paragraphs, and potential counter arguments.Please double-space and use 12-point font

What theoretical concepts from this course can be applied to understand why this problem is occurring?

Select, research, and analyze a real organization (public, private, or non-profit). You may select an organization in which you have worked or have been a member. Examine a problem or issue of concern within that organization. Be selective in choosing an issue or problem within an organization, as a lack of depth in the issue itself will not be an acceptable excuse for lack of depth in the analysis. The purpose of this CLA is to apply both what has been learned in the course as well as your own independent research to problems in an organization of your choice. Focus on an issue or problem that the organization is facing and is relevant to the content of this course. It will likely take several reflection sessions to identify a problem or issue that can be clearly defined, is manageable in scope, and is relevant to the course, so start this CLA weeks before it is due. Gather information while supplementing this information with data from the media, the organization’s literature, and other secondary sources. You should identify a relatively recent problem to analyze (i.e., this should not be an historical account of a problem and the company’s solution). You should focus your analysis by applying the concepts from the course. While it is acceptable to incorporate several concepts from the course, please aim for depth rather than breadth regarding the use of course concepts. To meet these broad goals, answer the following questions in a 4 to 6 page APA formatted written report supported by at least three (3) academic sources:1) What are the issues or problems facing the organization?2) What theoretical concepts from this course can be applied to understand why this problem is occurring? 3) What recommendations can you offer to help improve organizational functioning?
