Question

The Constitution

A. contains a long list of enumerated powers for the statesB. leaves open the question of when national or state powers predominateC. says very little about state powerD. clearly spells out that state governments have more power than the federal governmentE. leaves little opportunity for the Supreme Court to decide national-state power disputes

Answer 1

Letter C is the correct answer.

The U.S Constitution is the supreme law of our nation. The Constitution of the United States was created in 1787 and ratified in 1789. Its main goal was to establish the basic rights of its citizens. The constitution created a government that consists of 3 branches (legislative, executive and judiciary), established a system of checks and balances, and divided the power between the federal government and the 50 states. However, it says very little about state power. Many people believe that the states should have more powers to decide on taxes, the economy, and moral decisions.
