What is the difference of a democrat and Republican?
Democrats and RepublicansDemocrats are generally more liberal. They believe in a larger federal government, and often implement tax plans to try to help the less privileged. They tend to believe the government must look for the greater good above the individual person in terms of well-fare and do what is necessary to make the populace more "equal". They assert that the values our country holds must evolve over time, and, therefore, tend to support such controversial choices as Pro Choice and gay marriage.Republicans are generally more conservative. They believe that the answers do not lay with the government generally, but rather with the people. They want less government interference and tend to believe more strongly in property rights and less strongly in well-fare rights, holding economic equity above equality. Many republicans are religious and tend to hold to the morals characterizing the Founding Fathers, which results in general disproval of abortions and, for some, gay marriage.To sum it up, Democrats lean toward equality under a large federal goverment. Republicans lean towards people looking after themselves and their neighbors under small federal government and strong state governments.
How would you organize a government so that it would be fairly easy to remove and replace officials who violated the constitutional limitations on their powers?
The same way the founding fathers designed our government; open grand juries where "anyone can appear" before it and "the grand jury can take its information from any source" - this would mean a simple move to indict the person for treason. And if the government refused to act on the indictment (or provided itself with absolute immunity), we could overthrow the government by force of arms (2nd amendment & constitutional commentaries section 379).
Which branch has the power to control spending?
In the United States, there are a few situations where more than one branch of the Federal Government can control the budget. What comes to mind first is the House of Representatives. They must "pass" budgets proposed by the US President. In addition all "money bills" must originate in the House. Now the President also has a role in controlling the budget. Even though the House may have allocated funds for a specific purpose, the President often has discretion whether to spend all the funds that have been allocated.
