I think it's D. Am I correct Thanks so much for all your help I vote for B because it restates the quote -- that trade increases economic activity and also depletes natural resources.

Hi thanks again. Just to be certain, #23 is D Supreme Court interpreted the constitution literally and #28 is B - The Supreme Court

I think 23 is b..favoured the president. See a-s.clayton.edu/arnold/POLS%204450/Supreme%20Court.doc -

I apologize for any confusion. Let's clarify the answers for questions 23 and 28:

23. When legal issues have arisen out of foreign policy disputes between the President and Congress, the correct answer is "C. refused to intervene." The Supreme Court has often taken the position that such disputes between the elected branches of government are political questions and, therefore, outside the scope of their jurisdiction. This allows Congress and the President to resolve the issues through their own political processes.

28. The correct answer for this question is "D. All have been involved heavily." Traditionally, all branches of the government, including Congress, the Supreme Court, and the Executive Branch, have been actively involved in foreign policy disputes, each with their own roles and responsibilities.

I apologize for the earlier incorrect answers. Please let me know if you have any more questions!
