Question

In 2008, President George W. Bush vetoed the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act after it had passed Congress. Both houses of Congress voted to override the president’s veto, and the act became law on July 15, 2008.


Explain which constitutional principle this scenario illustrates. What evidence led you to that conclusion?
a) Popular Sovereignty
b) Republicanism
c) Rule of Law
d) Limited Government
e) Federalism
f) Separation of Powers
g) Checks and Balances

Answer 1

I would say Rule of law because in the text it says “in 2008 President George W. Bush voted the Medicare improvements for patients and providers act after it had passed congresss Both houses of congress voted to override the president’s veto and act became the law on July 15, 2008” Also because of that override that made it a Rule of law
