Samuel Choi CHAPTER 4 OUTLINE: American Political Culture Introduction Complete dependence on a constitution(even the American Constitution) does not guarantee the survival of the government nor protection of liberties. The U.S. Constitution has been copied by many other nations. Examples include Argentina, Philippines, and Brazil. In nearly every instance, the constitution lasted a short time. Democratic rule lasts short time, and then is interrupted by events such as military takeover and corruption. Such a pattern was noticed by Alexis Tocqueville. Tocqueville found several reasons for the sole survival of the American Constitution The U.S. was more suited for such a Constitution.

Module 5 Assignment 2: discussion Tiffany Ellis I was amazed by the strength and courage of the women of Liberia. These women were victimized, brutalized, and forced to endure horrors that many women can?t even imagine. Yet, they rose to the needs of themselves and each other and fought a war that was trying to destroy them. These women were forced to pick up weapons and fight for something they did not believe in. However, many overcame the obstacles and fought for a peace that eventually came (Amnesty International, 2008).
