Explanation:

Question 60

Cabinet - level positions are part of the executive branch. The Speaker of the House is part of the legislative branch (Congress), while Secretary of State, Secretary of Labor, and Attorney General are Cabinet - level positions.

The role of Chief Diplomat for the President relates to foreign relations. Handling foreign policy is a key aspect of diplomatic duties. The President being in charge of the military is the role of Commander - in - Chief, advising the Cabinet is not the main diplomatic role, and signing bills into law is the role of the President in the legislative process, not diplomacy.

For a bill to become a law, after passing through Congress, the President signs it. The Senate vetoing it would prevent it from becoming law, the Supreme Court reviews laws for constitutionality (not the process of making a bill a law), and the Chief Justice does not approve bills to become law.

Answer:

c) Speaker of the House
