<p>Ah, I HATE jurisdiction. It is so confusing.</p>
<p>Does anyone understand the full faith and credit clause? I don’t really understand it… </p>
<p>By the way, did you guys have an Economics unit in your class? Make sure you study Economics, because it WILL be on the exam!</p>
<p>economics?? like what!!!
full faith and credit…
isn’t that the thing about like if you get married in one state, the other state has to legally accept it or something…i think.</p>
<p>the full faith and credit clause says that states must honor or recognize laws/convictions/marriages etc. made in other states. in other words, give “full faith and credit” to other states’ laws.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Yeah anamai, Economics. It was a surprise essay on last year’s exam and that’s apparently why everyone at my school failed the exam, because they didn’t learn Economics.</p>
<p>If you have the Wilson and DiIulio book, skim through the chapter on Economic Policy.
Or you could go to Course Notes:
[American</a> Government, 7th Edition Textbook | Course-Notes.Org - Outlines, Notes, Vocabulary, Essays, DBQs, Practice Quizzes and much more!](<a href=“http://www.course-notes.org/US_Gov_and_Politics/Outlines/American_Government_7th_Edition_Textbook]American”>American Government, 7th Edition Textbook | CourseNotes)
There is the Economic Policy outline.</p>
<p>it’s not economics per se, but economic policy. just know how the budget is formed and the differences between monetary and fiscal policy, who’s influential in the budget, etc.</p>
<p>Can someone explain the presidential nomination process? I’m confused. So there’s the caucus and the primaries. What are the difference between them?</p>
<p>oh okay…yeah, i did the 2008 free-response and got kinda stuck on the whole fiscal/monetary thing…but learned it then…thanks for the link!</p>
<p>i think isn’t caucus done in private and primaries the public votes…i can’t quite remember…</p>
<p>Primaries are votes cast by people to pick the presidential nominee. There are three type of primaries: open, closed, and blanket</p>
<p>Open primaries mean that anyone can vote for anyone they want (so, a registered Democrat can go vote at the Republican Primary)</p>
<p>Closed means that you can only vote for the party you are registered.</p>
<p>Blanket means that both party nominees are in a single ballet.</p>
<p>Caucus are currently used in only 12 states, one of them is Iowa. Causcuses are chosen by elected party officials choosing which nominee to pick for their state. </p>
<p>Got it?</p>
<p>Monetary policy is done the Federal Reserve Board. They can choose what do with interest rate, control inflation etc.</p>
<p>Fiscal Policy is a joint effort done by the Executive and Legislative branch. Remember Appropriation bills ALWAYS start in the House.</p>
<p>haha…thanks…definetly made it a lot clearer!!</p>
<p>Thanks rockerguyasj! That was very helpful!</p>
<p>Also, primaries start in Iowa, right? Then NH?</p>
<p>The President Proposes a budget, gives it to Congress. Congress reviews the President’s recommendation and they have their own office to make their own recommendations. Then the budget first starts in the House, when the House approves of it, then the Senate goes and votes, if they can’t go to agreement then they meet in committee and figure out to compromise. Then when it gets passed, the president signs it.</p>
<p>What is a bully pulpit?</p>
<p>What is soft money?</p>
<p>Soft money is used by parties for party building activities on state and local level. They’re not directly to candidates for election purposes.</p>
<p>The bully pulpit is the power of influence that the president has to make the public help him get his programs passed. He can influence people to try to influence their representatives in congress to vote for legislation. He can also try to influence the members of congress themselves.</p>

<p>This is the reason why I am able to answer all your questions, a lot of good review. Short and to the point. Watch the videos and read the information on the things you are most confused about! I am almost done watching all 40 videos. Each video is less than 5 minutes long.</p>
<p>can someone answer this i dont have a key</p>
<p>A major differnece between the house of rep and senate is that</p>
<p>a - filibusters are possible only in house
b - revenue bills must originate in the senate
c - judicial nominations originate in a house committee
d - each state has equal representation in house but not senate
e - there is unlimited debate in the senate but not in the house</p>
<p>I think it’s B? It’s not A, D, or E.</p>
<p>Nope it’s not B. Revenue bills need to originate in the house. I guess it’s c then.</p>
<p>yea i’m pretty sure it’s b too</p>
