What are the inherent limits to a democratic government that attempts to protect and advance the limits of freedom to its citizens?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
What are the inherent limits to a democratic government that attempts to protect and advance the limits of freedom to its citizens?
The inherent limits of this government are the ones that are stated in the Constitution. The Constitution was created by the framers to clearly specify every single one of the rights of the citizens and can be found in the Bill of Rights that is the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution. This Bill of Rights was drafted by Federalist James Madison.
The Constitution protects the rights of the citizens and only in extreme major and necessary cases the government should evaluate the possibility no to eliminate, but to limit some of these rights and just for a certain time. Then if that would be the case, the government should clearly explain on time the reasons why the decision has been made, under what circumstances, and what would be the benefits of it.

PROJECT: SCIENTISTS AND INVENTORS
There has been a huge amount of technological progress made in the last 100 years. Just think, 100 years ago, there was no television; many homes didn't even have a radio. Many scientists and inventors led the way to the technological revolution that we are currently living in.
What makes someone a scientist or an inventor, though?
Scientists seek to explain how the world works. They conduct research and experiments to test a hypothesis. Their work seeks to change the way we understand the world around us.
Inventors focus on bringing an idea to reality; they do this by creating an original invention. Inventors contribute to society's progress by creating applicable ways to complete a process, such as with technological devices or chemical compounds.
OBJECTIVES
Identify the contributions of significant scientists and inventors.
Read and comprehend historical/social studies texts.
Analyze in detail a series of events described in a text, and determine whether earlier events caused later ones or simply preceded them.
Compare and contrast treatments of the same topic in several primary and secondary sources.
Design an effective slide-show presentation of your research using multiple forms of media.
Before You Begin
For this project, you will be creating a multimedia presentation about one of the following scientists or inventors:
Marie Curie
Thomas Edison
Albert Einstein
Louis Pasteur
James Watt
In order to create your presentation, you will first need to conduct research to gather the information. You will be required to read one, full-length literary nonfiction text about one of the above figures, as your central source. Literary nonfiction is a type of text that incorporates elements of literature as well as factual information. Essentially, it is a factually accurate story that incorporates literary elements like figurative language and literary style. In that way, it is different from strictly informational nonfiction texts, such as textbooks or encyclopedias.
One suggestion is to read a short autobiography or biography based on your selected historical figure. After you have selected the literary nonfiction text you will read, check in with your teacher to get the text approved.
In addition to the literary nonfiction text, you will also need one additional source. This source will be either a primary or a secondary source.
Primary sources are firsthand accounts of an event, original sources of information that were created at the time an event occurred. Primary sources may include autobiographies, artifacts, diaries, letters, treaties, speeches, song lyrics, poems, photographs, recordings, and newspaper articles.
Secondary sources contain the analysis and evaluation of a collection of information; secondary sources use a variety of information to draw a conclusion about a historical event. Secondary sources are often written by people who have studied primary sources and wish to share their conclusions. Examples of secondary sources include books, biographies, journal articles, and models built based on evidence collected

What is the main idea of the political cartoon "Under the Thumb"
Answer:
This political cartoon, "Under the Thumb," was published by Thomas Nast, the scourge of Tweed and the Tammany Hall Machine. In the cartoon, we see the Tweed has the city under his thumb, meaning he is in complete control. This cartoon depicts New York under the thumb of Tweed, who is the Boss there. Adding "Well, what are you going to do about it," supposedly a quote from Tweed himself, shows that he knows what he is doing, and knows that he can remove any threats he sees fit.

Use the reading below to answer the question. Analysis: How would you describe the tone of this section of President Kennedy’s speech? Cite textual evidence to support your claims.
...Neither the United States of America nor the world community of nations can tolerate deliberate deception and offensive threats on the part of any nation, large or small. We no longer live in a world where only the actual firing of weapons represents a sufficient challenge to a nation's security to constitute maximum peril. Nuclear weapons are so destructive and ballistic missiles are so swift, that any substantially increased possibility of their use or any sudden change in their deployment may well be regarded as a definite threat to peace.
For many years both the Soviet Union and the United States, recognizing this fact, have deployed strategic nuclear weapons with great care, never upsetting the precarious status quo which insured that these weapons would not be used in the absence of some vital challenge. Our own strategic missiles have never been transferred to the territory of any other nation under a cloak of secrecy and deception...
...But this secret, swift, and extraordinary buildup of Communist missiles--in an area well known to have a special and historical relationship to the United States and the nations of the Western Hemisphere, in violation of Soviet assurances, and in defiance of American and hemispheric policy--this sudden, clandestine decision to station strategic weapons for the first time outside of Soviet soil--is a deliberately provocative and unjustified change in the status quo which cannot be accepted by this country if our courage and our commitments are ever to be trusted again by either friend or foe.
Answer:
Explanation:
The first two paragraphs are a summary of fact. The tone is cool and collective. It puts in simple language that a threat, up until the Cuban Missel Crisis, was treated with respect and cool heads prevailed.
But once the soviets were seen as instigators of a policy that clearly violated the Monroe and later the Truman doctrines (though this was not stated), the tone changed and Kennedy's anger and steadfast determination to meat the challenge came out. Much is going on in that last stanza. Kennedy is warning the Soviet Union not to go to far. Their action will not be ignored and it will not be let slide under the rug. He will meet force with force if need be.
His tone is still calm, but he is both angry and determined.
