Answer 1

Here are the answers to your questions based on the provided information:

Question 1: Which one of the following is an example of someone demonstrating a democratic value?

• Response: Lisa places a sign of a current political candidate in her front yard.
  (This demonstrates a democratic value of political participation and expression.)

Question 2: How did the Federalist Papers generate support for ratifying the Constitution?

• Response: by explaining how the Constitution would protect states’ rights.
  (The Federalist Papers outlined the benefits of the Constitution, although the correct answer regarding states' rights can be debated, it also emphasized the protection of liberties and balance between national and state powers.)

Question 3: Which weaknesses are associated with the Articles of Confederation? Choose all that apply.

• Responses:
  • All states had to approve amendments
  • States coined their own money (These reflect key weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. The other options are incorrect as the Articles did not give too much power to the central government or allow for a legislature based solely on population in the one-house system, and slavery's ban isn't directly a weakness of the Articles themselves.)

Question 4: Based on the excerpt from the text, what was one potential problem with the Articles of Confederation?

• Response: Smaller states had the same voting power in Congress as larger states.
  (This represents a potential problem because it means that larger states did not have proportional representation compared to their population, causing disputes and feelings of inequality among the states.)
