Question

Based on your reading of the following, choose the best answer to the question. The president hires the heads of the major departments called cabinets. In one instance, the head of the Department of Health and Human Services was responsible for the rollout of a major new health initiative in which people had to enroll, in large numbers, online. The rollout was something of a disaster, with the Web site continually crashing and deadlines for signup in the program being missed. Many people called for the resignation of the secretary for the disastrous rollout. The president did not fire the secretary. As it turns out, presidents hardly ever fire the people they appoint to head up executive agencies. Why is that the case? The people the president hires are highly qualified and almost never deserve to lose their jobs. After a firing, a vacancy remains for a time, which is bad for governance of an important department. It is too difficult for the president to go through two Senate confirmations for the same post. A firing means that the president made a hiring error, which is an impression he or she wants to avoid.

Answer 2

vacancy remains for a time, which is bad for governance of an important department

Step-by-step explanation:

After the president fires his appointee from office, the whole process of appointment starts.

The bureaucracy is too long thereby making the office lack proper governorship for a while.

This leads to low delivery which is undesirable for any president.

Changing of leadership of office causes a stir in the operations of the office due to the need to reorganize and adapt.
