Urgent Homework Help!

Oh looks like I’ve gone and failed reading comprehension 101. Probably qualifies me to advance to the 2nd trimester of the electoral college

[Johnny_Bravo]

Sorry, I’m lost. Does anyone know how to get from this thread to the Mornington Crescent tube station?

[Celidin]

Oh that’s easy. Take a right out of the parking lot, go one block. Turn right, go one block. Turn right, go one block. Go right again for one more block, then turn right and the driveway should be on your right.

You forgot to mention that in case of a tie, Joe Biden, as president pro temp of the Senate, has to bareknuckle box any representatives from the other side in order to cast his tie-breaking vote.

I think you meant: “pro temprarium”.

[elucidator]

When the conversation gets around to where the Defenestration at Prague is relevant, wake me up. I remember that one. Cost my folks about ten grand, but I remember.

Doesn’t that mean “people who don’t like tipping”?

[YogSothoth]

@John_Mace

I think you meant: “pro temprarium”.

Its actually short for “Professional Templeton”, because the first Senator pro temp was a guy named Templeton and he did fight any Senators from the other side who wanted to prevent him from casting his vote. Its how the Whig party died out, because he was a professional boxer, and beat many of those in the Whig party to death during his term

[Enginerd]

Also, because he was in favor of keeping baby turtles in glass tanks for short periods of time.

We weren’t talking about the Electoral College. Looks like those years of remedial civil engineering were wasted!

The Electrical College has no bearing on National Security unless Order 66 is enacted.

At that point in time, all of the Elector Counts nominate 1 representative and a second, who recess into the Quid Pro Quorum.

The Quorum is a modern expression of democracy by combat, which is why seconds negotiate with one another without the direct involvement of the Elector’s representative.

The back and forth lasts for a few days, and ultimately two drafted amendments to the NSA’s Combined Cyber Crime, False Flag, and Amber Alert Protocols are presented to the Electors’ represetative for a majority vote on one or the other.

According to the Treaty of Westphalia, a faithless Elector may be summarily defenestrated, but they can be offered protection by another Elector Count, under Lutheran tradition.

Shouldn’t that be the Treaty of Wasilla?

[Heart_of_Dorkness]

No, though the two are often confused. The Treaty of Wasilla (aka the Palin-Putin Accord) pertains to international relations, and implies (rather controversially, I might add) that mere proximity necessarily imparts hetero-political erudition.

Beardpig is right in that we don’t normally help people do their homework, but I’ve taken pity on you, and I’m making an exception in your case.

First of all you need to understand that the President needs a 3/4th majority vote in the senate in order to pass laws, but any laws he passes can be vetoed by the FFDCA. That being said, the Cabinet of Representatives doesn’t need approval in order to issue commands to the military, even without a formal declaration of war made by the Supreme Court, which is why the United States hasn’t officially been at war since the Hundred Years War. So in terms of contrasting their respective powers, the Senate is really more of a collection of figureheads, whereas the President and his War Cabinet are the real drivers of security policy. Overall I’d say the President has the more power, though the 1975 Access to Information Act did siphon some of that away from the position. Hope this helped.

Are you familiar with Laura K “Krishna”? (http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2005/03/31/plagiarize)

Not to be confused with the Treaty of Walla Walla, which is a mutual defense pact against drop bears.

And it’s important to remember that it’s “hetero”, not that other thing.

Can anyone help me compare and contrast the roles of NAMBLA and the FDIC in modern society please?

Sure one protects your bondles and bucks while the other likes to fondle and …

Ok. that’s the best rhyme I could come up with, sue me.

That’s the Treaty of Wagga Wagga. The Treaty of Walla Walla was never ratified as half the delegates died of dysentery on the way to Walla Walla, a common fate back then for travellers on the Oregon Trail.

Not enough ammo.

Wait. I thought the treaty of Wagga Wagga was what set up Oregon as a DMZ between CA and WA to staunch the flow of Starbucks franchises in The Golden State in order to preserve our very own Peet’s Coffee and Tea.

So I wonder if the OP got an A with all this excellent help.
