Why do you think the constitution states that the president must seek approval from the senate for most political appointments and treaties?

If the president could make treaties and appointments on his own without seeking approval from any other body, he/she could make their best buddy from college the Secretary of State, despite them possibly knowing nothing of the U.S. or foreign governments.  Or, the president could make a treaty with a country that everyone in America dislikes, only because that country promised to sell the president land in exchange for a treaty.  By going through the Senate, treaties and appointments are filtered to ensure that qualified and reasonable appointments and agreements are made.

hi there!

question - in the 1900s there were two competing views about the environment that often pitted industrialist and conservationist against one another. how were these two competing views demonstrated by the environmental policies of president roosevelt and president taft?

theodore had a quicked tempered personality while president taft was shy and barely noticable.theodore had started a dealing service with big companies which president taft completed.both were into making sure workers were always safe.president taft took the presidency more serious than theodore did.both loved to save nature.

hope this : )
