Answer 1

The government of the US is like a big tree- and with three branches. The 1st branch is the Legislative Branch where the laws are made. It's also another name for Congress. The top of the Congress is called the Upper House. Another name for it is the Senate. The Upper House has 100 Senators. They stay there for 6 years. There are 2 Senators from every state. The smallest state has 2 Senators. The biggest has 2 Senators also. The lower part of Congress is called the Lower House. But it has another name, too The House of Represenentatives. The Lower House has 435 Representatives, who stay there for 2 years. * The Executive Branch is the one where the President and his Cabinet are. It's called the Executive Branch because the President is the Chief Executive of the US. He is the top person in our government. The Cabinet is the President's most important helpers. All the members are hired by the President. Most are called "Secretaries"- Secretary of State, of Agriculture, of Treasury, etc. * The Supreme Court of the US is the Judicial Branch. The Justices of the Supreme Court sit on the bench of this Court. The Cheif Justice is the Head of the Supreme Court. There are 8 Associate Justices. The court is called Supreme because that's what it is- the highest court in the US. The 9 Justices know a great deal about the Constitution, the highest law of the US. But the Constitution is so hard to understand that the 8 Justices have to tell us what it means. Benjamin Franklin,George Washington, James Madison Jr, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, are the 6 people who where closely associated with the development of the Constitution. This should be all the info you need. Glad to have helped. Wish I had Yahoo Answers when I was in school. :)

Answer 5

Were I in your place I believe I would look up the constitution on the net and actually read it. You might even learn something you didn't know before such as the duties of the three branches of government and of course the bill of rights. And I'd be willing to bet that the site would also have the complete list of contributors to that hallowed document. But to get you started you might think George Washington, Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, etc. Good luck on the paper. When I was your age I actually had to go to the library and look in an encyclopedia for that answer.

Answer 6

Their powers are outlined in the Constitution. It is only a few pages long and not that hard to read. Also I must say that this is not at all a stupid assignment. If more people had taken their 8th grade assignments more seriously our nation would be much better for it.
