The promises and possibilities of reelection dictate the behavior of members of congress. Unlike the President of the United States, members of Congress are not restrained by a term limit, and, consequently, spend their careers focused wooing their constituency in a constant effort towards reelection. As a result, David Mayhew in Congress: The Electoral Connection has labeled congressional members as single-minded: the motivation for a member of congress being the ultimate prize of reelection.…

not perceived as a president who had done a lot to help the country, however, he became much more appreciated after people saw the way in which he responded. He reacted in the way that Congress and the bulk of the American's wanted at the time; by going to war with the people who posed such a great threat to the American people. In the days following the incident, there was also a great impact on America economically. Trading on the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ was suspended from…
