According to the U.S Constitution, the President’s ultimate responsibility is to “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.” In contrast to many countries with similar forms of government where presidents or heads of states are more ceremo- nial, the President of the United States has significant authority and power. The President has the power to either sign legislation into law or veto bills enacted by Congress, although Congress may override a veto with a two-thirds vote of both houses. Article 2, Section 2 of The United States Constitution states that the president “shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for...”. The Supreme Court appointment is of significance, as it is a lifetime appointment. One area that grants presidential power is the issuance of executive orders, a directive from the President that has much of the same power as a federal law. Executive orders influence the internal functioning of govern- ment, determining how laws are enforced, and are often used to deal with emergency situations like war, and in the implementation of policies and broad statutes. All presidents have issued executive orders, some more than others, although there is no direct definition, right or limitations for the use of executive orders in the US Constitution. Executive orders are subject to judicial review and may be overturned if the order is not supported by statute or the Constitution; some require 2 approval by the legislative branch. Once issued, executive orders remain in force until they are canceled, revoked, deemed unlawful, or expire on their terms. The president has the power to cancel, modify, or make exceptions for any previously issued executive order, even those issued by a predeces- sor. During the first few weeks of office a president will typically review all executive orders currently in force. The President also serves as Chief Diplomat, which shapes American Foriegn Policy. Along with Chief Citizen, with the expectation that they will provide an example of moral character and integrity while representing all citizens of the United States. The Vice President of The United States of America The vice president acts as second in command to the president. Vice presidential candidates campaign alongside their presidential running mates, serve a term of four years if elected, and must meet the same requirements as those of potential presidents. The vice president must be a natural born U.S citizen, at least 35 years of age, and must have lived in the United States for a minimum of 14 years. The first and arguably most vital role of the vice president is that the position ranks first in the presidential line of succession. The 25th Amend- ment to The United States Constitution clearly dictates that, if the president becomes incapacitated, dies, resigns or is removed from office, the vice president assumes the office of the president. The second vital role of the vice president is to preside over the US Senate. The vice president is expected to maintain order and decency, recognize members to speak, and interpret the Senate’s rules, practices, and precedents. As president of the Senate, the vice president may only vote to cast a tie-breaking vote. In the modern day, the vice presidential role also functions as an important presidential advisor. Additionally, presidents in recent years have delegated authority to vice presidents in order to handle significant issues independently. During Barack Obama’s administration, then vice president Joe Biden was assigned directly by the president to oversee Iraq policy. In 2020, Donald Trump assigned current vice president Mike Pence the duty of overseeing the COVID-19 task force. 3 PRESIDENT / VICE The incumbent President of the United States of Amer- ica, Donald J. Trump, is a 74-year-old businessman, real-estate de- veloper and reality TV show host originally from New York, NY. He was elected in 2016 by winning the electoral college vote, despite losing the popular vote by three million. Trump has been married to his wife, Slovene model Melania Trump, since 2005, with whom he shares one son, Barron. His first marriage was with the Czech model, Ivana Zelníčková Winklmayr from 1977 until 1992. They have three children together, Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric. After his divorce in 1993, he married American actress, Marla Maple, after she gave birth to his fourth child, Tiffany. They divorced in 1999. Trump holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from the DONALD TRUMP Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Upon gradu- President ation, he began working for his father’s real-estate business. In Republican 1974, he became president of a conglomeration of Trump-owned corporations and partnerships, which he later named the Trump Organization. He expanded the family business by investing in luxury hotels, residential properties, and casinos. Trump built his reputation as a shrewd businessman and self-made billionaire. However, Trump has also been part of numerous lawsuits and financial struggles throughout his career, including declaring bankruptcy on multiple businesses. In 1991, 1992 and 2009 his former online educa- tion company, Trump University, was the target of a class action lawsuit by former students and the New York attorney general. The lawsuit was settled in 2016 for $25 million. In 2019, two years into his presidency, Trump settled another lawsuit charging him of illegally using assets from his charity, the Trump Foundation, to fund his 2016 presidential campaign. This case was also settled for $25 million. In December of 2019, Trump became the third American President to be formally im- peached by the House of Representatives, and the first President to be impeached during his first term. He was impeached for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, but remained in office when he was acquitted by the Senate. Trump’s campaign and presidency have been centered around his “America First” platform, with goals to “lower taxes for the American people, repeal and replace Obamacare, end stifling regulations, protect our borders, keep jobs in our country, strengthen military and law enforcement, renegotiate bad trade deals, and creating a government of, by, and for the people.” Since he took office in 2016, Trump has strongly expressed anti-immigration and an- ti-refugee stances. In 2017, he implemented multiple executive orders banning nationals from the countries of Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and North Korea from entering the US. He was ultimately forced to revise these bans as they faced legal challenges of their constitution- ality in lower courts. In June 2018, the Supreme Court upheld a revised version of the ban in a five to four ruling. Trump has also implemented a “zero tolerance policy” regarding the illegal immigration process. The result of this policy has led to the separation of some children and parents who have either entered the U.S. illegally, or who are attempting to cross the border. The crisis surrounding the treatment of these children, including the decision to separate them from their parents and place them in detention centers without adequate hygiene, cloth- ing, and food has gone largely unaddressed by Trump’s administration. Trump’s campaign goal of “protecting unborn life through every means available” has resulted in legislation that allows states to restrict funding to Planned Parenthood, and also expands the Mexico City Policy, which bans U.S. aid to any worldwide organization that performs abortions. Through the Education Innovation and Research Program, Trump has in- creased funding to promote school choice. Supporters of school choice want their education tax dollars routed away from public schools into private and parochial schools of their choice. During his 2016 campaign, Trump promised to appoint conservative judges. As of April 2020, Trump has installed 51 judges at the circuit court level — about 30 percent of all active judgeships — who sit at one level below the U.S. Supreme Court. Trump

  • 2020 Tennessee General Election Results
    2020 Tennessee General Election Results President: As the nation awaits to see who the next President will be Tennessee was quickly called for President Trump Tuesday evening. Though the President underperformed in Tennessee compared to his numbers in 2016, he still decidedly carried the State with 61% of the vote. Joe Biden carried only three counties in Tennessee: Davidson, Shelby and Haywood. U.S. Senate: Just as Tennessee voting Red for President Trump was no surprise; it was no surprise that Republican Bill Hagerty won big against Democrat Marquita Bradshaw. Bill Hagerty will replace retiring Senator Lamar Alexander. Bill Hagerty is a lifelong Tennessean who has filled various roles in the private sector with a great deal of success and has served as Tennessee Economic and Community Development Commission under Governor Haslam and U.S. Ambassador to Japan under President Trump. Hagerty received the endorsement of President Trump and defeated Dr. Manny Sethi in the primary. U.S. House: All eight of Tennessee’s incumbents were re-elected with little opposition. Tennessee will have a new face in Congress in Diana Harshbarger, who won the Republican Primary for Congressional District 1 to fill the seat left open by retiring Congressman Phil Roe. Diana is a pharmacist from Kingsport. State Senate: Senate District 20: Senator Steve Dickerson, a Republican from Nashville was defeated by Democrat Heidi Campbell, mayor of Oak Hill. Experts knew this race would be close as the district is a democrat district by close to 9 points. Though Senator Dickerson was a left leaning Republican, his voting record was not enough to save him from the anti-Trump voter turnout seen in Davidson County.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • The Invisible Primary and the 1996 Presidential Nomination
    The Invisible Primary and the 1996 Presidential Nomination Thomas R. Marshall, University of Texas at Arlington The 1996 presidential nominations process will not begin with the first state primaries and caucuses. By January 1996 the candidates had already spent millions of dollars and thousands of days campaigning during the "in­ visible primary." The 1996 nominations race features several new prac­ tices—such as the front-loading of delegate-selection events, and the re- emergence of Washington insiders as the early GOP leaders. For the first time since 1964 the Democrat Party did not face a spirited nominations race. This article reviews the prenomination season for the 1996 presidential race with evidence available by early January 1996. Public Opinion Public opinion remained relatively stable during the 1995 "invisible primary," just as it typically has in recent presidential contests.1 Heavy spending in key primary and caucus states, debates among the candidates, and the entry and exit of candidates all failed to move public opinion polls during 1995. In the absence of saturation media coverage and media labeling of "winners" and "losers" in the early caucuses and primaries, few dramatic poll shifts appeared. The Republicans Throughout 1995, the Gallup Poll reported only slight changes in the first-choice preferences of self-identified Republicans and independents leaning Republicans. Between April 1995 and January 1996, front-runner Bob Dole’s support varied only from a low of 45 percent to a high of 51 percent. Support for Senator Phil Gramm varied only from a low of seven percent to a high of 13 percent.
