fifth amendment
first amendment
ninth amendment
second amendment

1. The goal of 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments is to ensure that:

The correct answer is "all citizens over the age of 18 have a voice in Government".

Analysis: These three amendments are suffrage amendments. Each one promotes the defense of the right to vote of the American citizens. In one case, of the African-American population since 1870, after the Civil War. In the amendment nineteenth, of the female vote, from 1920 and in the other, the 26th, reducing the minimum age to vote from 21 to 18 years of age since 1971.

2. In the American constitutional system, the legislative branch makes the law, the executive branch executes the law, and the judicial branch interprets the law. How does this system support the separation of powers?

The correct answer is "Each branch affects the other, power is shared, and one branch can be challenged by another branch".

Analysis: The power of the federal government is divided between the three branches: legislative, executive and judicial, which constitutes the "Separation of powers" in the strict sense. Moreover, the exercise of power by any of the three powers of the federal government is limited in several ways by the powers given to the other two, thus establishing the principle of limits and counterweights.  For example, the legislative branch of the Congress of The United States is limited and counterbalanced by the presidential veto; and the power of the president to appoint ambassadors, federal judges, and high federal officials are limited by the constitutional requirement that those appointments obtain the consent of the Senate.

This method of separation of powers has also been carried out, within each State, in its own state constitution through the division of state governmental power among the three branches of government of the State; the creation of checks and balances between the three branches of government State, and the delegation of governmental power to two lower levels of local government, counties, and municipalities.

3. Lloyd enjoys deer hunting. He goes into a local store to purchase a new gun. Which amendment to the Constitution ensures Lloyd's ability to purchase a new gun?

The correct answer is the Second Amendment.

Second Amendment: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed".

Analysis: The American citizens have a right to own guns; the 2nd Amendment provides a justification for that and the Government cannot violate, prohibit or ban this right.
