How has the American policing role been exercised? What are the consequences of the policing role?

How has the American policing role been exercised? What are the consequences of the policing role? America as a Superpower  focused on domestic matters in U.S. history. This last assignment explores America’s international role in recent decades. By the mid-20th century, the United States had become the dominant force in international relations. Some have argued that the United States’ military functions as the world’s “police.” This assignment covers the manner in which this shift occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its status as “policeman of the world.” One can identify early steps this direction well before World War II, but in this paper focus on the period from the 1940s to the present. Examine the statement below and drawing from provided sources, present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position. Statement—in which you can take a pro or con position: The American international “policing” role developed because of the Cold War, but now terrorists or any power having or trying to get weapons of mass destruction (WMD) are the potential targets of such a role. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the policing strategy was once essential but should be discarded as ineffective and counterproductive. (Or you can argue the opposite—that the policing strategy is more necessary than ever; or you can argue for a more moderate position.)

define how the constitution restricts the power of the Executive Branch. What do you believe is the historical and current power of the Presidency, what power should they have or not have. How does the constitution provide for checks and balances ? Based on our study of authority, can checks and balances be delayed, stopped, or ignored by those in power? How can voters change these tactics? Base your opinions and conclusions on valid research.
