The existence of a veto ensures that any progress towards a resolution by the SC is locked down and frozen until the individual interests of P5 states are satisfied, and said interests don’t always match up to the resolution of any problem in question. The only significant disadvantage for P5 members to veto is negative attention through public and press scrutiny both in their own countries and internationally. Though this too can be avoided through the use of a ‘pocket veto’, whereby a P5…

Unfortunately, the governor of Texas does not have that same luxury. The governor of Texas powers involve parts of the executive, legislative and judicial branches. In the executive branch one of the main and significant powers held by the Texas governor is the power of appointment. The power of appointment gives the governor “ control over 410 governmental entities, including a wide range of agencies, commissions, and boards” ( Champagne and Harpman 245). The power of appointment is a great…

Bills are presented to Congress more often than you think, but only ten percent actually become laws. It’s not an easy process to pass a bill and there are quite a few steps. All laws in the United States begin as bills. Anyone can draft a bill but only a member of Congress can introduce legislation in Congress. The member who introduces the legislation is called the bills’ “Sponsor”. The first action a committee takes on a bill is to place it on the committee calendar. The bill goes to the full…

The Judicial…

The U. S. Constitution has an important feature and that is its provision for a system of checks and balances. In this system the branches are created and power is shared between them. The power of one branch can be challenged by another so that one branch cannot become too powerful. This is what a checks and balances system is all about. The U.S. Constitution created three branches as a part of our United States government. First is the Legislative Branch, which makes the law. The…

undemocratic regimes rule and lead the world through the UNSC is ironic. Democratization dictates that the P5 must be democratic states and transparent in all the stages of the UN. China and Russia are non-democratic permanent states with the right of veto power and according to article 30 of the UN Charter; the UNSC has the right to determine its own work procedures. This is a clear example of how the geopolitical power relation of countries has surpassed the democratic ideals of UN. It also…

session. This is called ‘pocket veto.’ If the president opts to do so, then the bill dies and cannot become a law. However, if the Congress is still in session, then the bill, by default, becomes a law after a period of ten days. The bill can also become a law when the Congress overrides the veto decision that has been made by the president. The president might also decide that the bill is not necessary or is unwise in one aspect or another and thus, veto the bill. Once a veto has been issued by…
