I'm not Ms. Sue, but I don't think its B, the 14th amendment gives citizenship to anyone born in or naturalized in the U.S. The bill of rights were added to the constitution to make sure everyone had equal rights and that there was a balance.
Scarlet do you think its A then?
I think it could be either A or D...what does your text material say?
The 14th Amendment has nothing to do with checks and balances between state and federal governments.
So it has to be A or B. I think im gonna go with B
No. If all else fails, Google 14th amendment. Please do not post this question again.
So, you've ruled out b, c, and d...I think you have your answer...
Thats not the point, the point is for you to understand why the answer is correct
It's A...
