Why did united states representatives believe that it was necessary to change the articles of confederation? (select all that apply.) to allow congress the ability to raise salaries for representatives to address economic difficulties, such as the standardization of currency to allow for the creation of a national army and navy to provide for means of resolving conflicts between states to resolve conflicts over western territories with foreign countries

The correct options are the options B. To address economic difficulties, such as the standardization of currency, and option D. To provide for means of resolving conflicts between states.

There were 13 Articles of Confederation and 13 states, the Articles were modified because it was a growing country, specially after the war, and the Articles had their limitations, they were focus on the central government, but on the other hand it gaves sovereign to each state. With the modification it was neither one not the other but a mixture of both of them, that made a more complete Constitution of the United States.

in the united states, the president is controlled by the

constitution, and in all respects subordinate to it. insofar

as it deals with presidential power, however, the american

constitution has proved to be a highly malleable document.

with very few exceptions,' the constitutional provisions relating to the president have not been changed at all since

they were ratified in 1787. but in the late twentieth century, those provisions do not mean what they meant in

1787. the constitution is a legal document, and it is enforced judicially; but its meaning was hardly fixed when it

was ratified. in particular, the contemporary president has

far broader powers than the original constitution contemplated. it is remarkable but true that large-scale changes in

the authority of the president have been brought about

without changes in the constitutional text, but nevertheless

without significant illegality.

this is a paradox. is it not clear that constitutional

changes, if not textual, are illegal? the paradox has considerable relevance to our current thinking about the presidency in particular and about constitutionalism in general.

perhaps the framers of the american constitution feared

legislative power most of all; 2 but from well-known events

in the twentieth century, it is possible to conclude that it is

presidential power that holds out the greatest risks to both

liberty and democracy. the president is by far the most visible leader in the nation; he is often the only person in government with a national constituency. moreover, he is
