Question

in order to get around the need for senate approval of treaties, many contemporary presidents have made use of ______ in foreign affairs. diplomacy international protocols executive agreements executive immunity question 5 (4 points) listen if a president claims executive privilege, they are saying: congress must allow them to address a joint session. only those who have been appointed by the president should be allowed to be a part of white house conversations. they have the sole power of determining where and how the country uses its military. their communications with close advisors should be confidential. question 6 (4 points) listen while the constitution does not specify that presidents have the power to remove those they appointed to office from their positions, presidents have long claimed that the power is implied by those expressed powers they have in the constitution. the courts ruled that the president can remove such officials if the senate also votes for removal. after much legal argumentation, congress delegated that power to the president in the wake of the civil war. presidents have pushed for a constitutional amendment to allow them to remove such officials.

Explanation:

• First question: Executive agreements are pacts between the president and foreign leaders that do not require Senate approval like treaties do. Diplomacy is a general approach to foreign relations. International protocols are sets of rules for diplomatic interactions. Executive immunity is about legal protection for the president, not bypassing Senate approval for treaties.
• Second question: Executive privilege is the claim that communications between the president and close advisors should be confidential. Addressing a joint session is a different presidential activity. The idea about only president - appointed people in White House conversations is too narrow. Sole power over military use is about a different presidential power (commander - in - chief), not executive privilege.
• Third question: Presidents have long claimed the power to remove appointees as implied by their expressed powers in the Constitution. The Court ruling described in the second option is incorrect. Congress did not delegate this power after the Civil War in the way described in the third option. There has been no significant push for a constitutional amendment for this specific power as stated in the fourth option.

Answer:

• First question: C. executive agreements
• Second question: D. their communications with close advisors should be confidential.
• Third question: A. presidents have long claimed that the power is implied by those expressed powers they have in the Constitution.
