Research Questions

Why is the American government seperated into three branches? The governement is set up into three branches becuause each branch has a specific role to play. The legislatiive branch main job is to make laws, the judicial branch interperets laws and the judicial branch makes the laws happen. A system of checks and balances is used so that no branch has more power than the others. They share equal power, this is important because we need to know how the government operates because it effects us in a lot of ways.
What is the difference between the Electoral vote and the popular vote?

Why is it only the house that can impeach the president and not also the senate? Why isn't this power shared?

What happens if the judicial branch rejects a law proposed by the legislative branch?
