I think if you got imperial/imperil and 1 or 2 more of the predicted essays down then you could maybe do broken branch if you're feeling confident. I don't think fed might come up but if it does I'm screwed that's for sure :biggrin:

Btw this is the broken branch essay if you're interested: http://ussmokefilledroom.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/is-congress-broken-branch.html

OK SO, if all else fails remember that Jina ernsT based her senate campaign for Iowa on castrating pigs, appealing to the rural constituents of Iowa and claiming she would make 'washington squeal' XD!!

Yes please lets hope for a good exam guys! See you on the other side! :smile:
Good luck everyone hope it goes good for all of yoy
Yayy it was a nice paper. I had expected the worst.
I was so excited about imperial presidencies that I wrote a ton about it in the President 45 marker. Did I dun goof?

I swung it as in persuasion was not the most important power since there have been occasions in which Presidents have used far greater (illegitimate) powers

I didnt even know what the 'power to persuade' even was until after the exam lol, said it wasn't even close to his most significant power since veto and ability to appoint justices etc were more important because of that. Did like 1 para for it being the most important and like 6 against

also why was Dick Cheney so powerful? Desperately dont want to ever see my textbook again
thought it was really good. much better than 3c

Checks and balances - wars powers act
Partisanship - lack of political consensus

Against
