"With the new government, there is something called 'checks and balances'. This is a way for the government to ensure that there is fair representation and equal distribution of power throughout all of the branches. There will be 3 branches; the Legislative (congress), Executive (The elected president), and Judicial (Supreme court). Unlike the monarchy in England, power is equal. I will explain. Starting with the executive branch, the president may veto laws, or refuse to pass them. The president may also appoint judges to the courts, but to keep the president in check, the Judicial branch has the authority to declare presidential acts unconstitutional. The court mat also declare laws from congress unconstitutional, but Congress still has the power to approve/disapprove presidential nominations into the Supreme court, and congress can also impeach judges. To even out the power, Congress can also approve presidential nominations, and control the budget, pass laws over the president's veto, and even impeach the president. This way, every branch presented has its own strengths over one another."

Answer:

First Paragraph:

There is something that everybody here probably has not heard about yet, and It is our new constitution and government. There have been several long and hard meetings deciding and making new law ideas and government ideas so that we can have an amazing and stable country!

Second Paragraph: Discuss the separation of powers and checks and balances.

Use examples to explain the difference between the two ideas.

With our new government, we will have something that is called ‘checks and balances’. Checks and balances are a good way to make sure that there will be a nice and equal distribution of power with every single branch. What I mean by branches is the three branches of the government! We have the Legislative, which is our congress. The Executive, which is our new president that all of us citizens will elect. Finally, we have the Judicial, which is our court system! Because of all three of these, it ensures that the power is all equal.

Third Paragraph: Discuss the position of the Federalists related to ratification of the Constitution. Use facts.

There have been two opposing viewpoints that have been carefully intertwined with the new government system. The first viewpoint was the one of the federalists. The federalists have been in favor of supporting the ratification of the constitution. They believe the Articles of Confederation were inadequate to serve the needs of this new country and a new government should be developed, that has higher national power

Fourth Paragraph: Discuss the position of the Anti-Federalists related to ratification of the Constitution. Use facts.

Anti-federalists are opposed to the ratification out of fear that the government will grow too strong, specifically the president and Congress. This is the very reason why we have included the Supreme Court, and arranged a system of Checks and balances, as stated earlier. This ensures that all power is equal, and in turn, provides a represented government and majority of people in this country.

Fifth Paragraph: Here’s a conclusion to wrap up everything I’ve told you guys today; I know it’s a lot! I told you about checks and balances, and about how it ensures that the government doesn’t have too much power. The government is split into the three branches to control things fairly! I have also talked about the Anti-Federalists and the Federalists who want or don’t want the constitution to be passed.
