Which of these would be the best way to influence the government in a dictatorship? a) through achievement in military engagements b) voting at regularly scheduled elections c) through organized political protest d) by appealing to religious leaders

The correct option is "B) voting at regularly scheduled elections"

A dictatorship is an authoritarian form of government, characterized by a single leader or group of leaders without a weak party or party, little mass mobilization and limited political pluralism. According to other definitions, democracies are regimes in which "those who govern are selected through competitive elections"; therefore, dictatorships are not "democracies". With the advent of the 19th and 20th centuries, dictatorships and constitutional democracies emerged as the two main forms of world government, gradually eliminating monarchies, one of the traditional forms of government extended at that time.

the first 10 amendments to the u.s. constitution are known as the bill of rights. those 10 amendments establish the most basic freedoms for americans including the rights to worship how they want, speak how they want, and assembly and peaceably protest their government how they want. the amendments have also been subject to much interpretation since their adoption, particularly the right to carry a gun under the second amendment.

"a bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference," said thomas jefferson, the author of the declaration of independence and the third president of the united states.
