Question

all of the following are examples of implied powers except:
a. creating an air force
b. building and funding interstate highways
c. regulating televisions broadcasting
d. creating a national guard
please select the best answer from the choices provided

Explanation:

Implied powers are powers not explicitly stated in the Constitution but are reasonably inferred from the expressed powers. Creating a national guard is a power explicitly stated in the Constitution (Article I, Section 8). Creating an Air Force (derived from the power to raise and support armies), building and funding interstate highways (related to the commerce clause), and regulating television broadcasting (also related to the commerce clause) are implied powers.

Answer:

D. creating a national guard
