(i) What is the institutional power and the personal right you believe to be the most important, and explain why?
Over the years Political Scientists have considered institutional power as the bases of the United States. Political Scientists also consider institutional power as the core of the government, churches and corporation behaviors. For Example Art.1 section 8 Clause 18, explains that the power that the constitution gives to Congress is the “necessary and proper clause”, this clause is important because the words gives congress the right to make laws that is necessary and proper for carrying out the power vested in the constitution.

Already, citizens have expressed concern over the numerous executive orders that the President has written during his first week in office. This leaves the United States citizens concern, especially in regards to immigration issues; but how can we as citizen remove the President institutional power on executive orders?
