What are 5 things in common between the US Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights?

Question by wheezer: What are 5 things in common between the US Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights?
For Honors History, I need to compare the Constitution and the UDHR. What are 5 points in the Declaration that are also clearly stated in the Constitution?

Best answer:

Answer by George S
There are similarities but the UDHR is much more idealized. It also gives a loophole I’m sure is used regularly by political leaders around the world. Politicians everywhere are what I call masters of expedience and will continually have crisis allowing them exceptions of all kinds even if they must manufacture the crisis.

Our Bill of Rights was created separately from the Constitution by an opposing faction (anti-Federalist farmers and tradesmen) to the people sponsoring the Constitution (Federalist Party bankers and merchants). Those rights were intended as protection against the Constitution and the people who sponsored it. Included was citizens rights to military weapons for forcing those rights when they were threatened by governments.

The UDHR is far to idealistic and dependent on the UN to enforce. There is no guarantee to arms for the people to enforce it against governments and the UN if even they violate it. They are far too unreliable to be trusted and so is any governing group. I suspect the main function of the UDHR is to provide HRC members fat salaries and secure bureaucratic positions to pretend they are actually doing something worthwhile when it actually futile.

None of it will hold up as resources again become strained by the still-grossly overpopulating cultures around the world. Expanding hordes of desperate people has always caused most wars. The propaganda involved is just to rationalize what the burgeoning hordes must do anyway: slaughter their neighbors and take their land for coming generations with even larger populations.

Instead of wasting their time with this kind of empty words making futile proclamations they should focus on promoting birth control everywhere. The world needs to shed 4 billion or more people before any hope of sustained peace and cooperation is possible.

Why did the writers of the Constitution created a federal system of government?

Question by casey: Why did the writers of the Constitution created a federal system of government?
Also, what’s the relationship between the principles of checks and balances and the separation of powers as detailed in the Constitution?

Best answer:

Answer by Professortemple
They created a stronger federal system of the government in the Constitution because of the failures of the Articles of Confederation, which made for a very weak federal government, and gave all the powers to the states, leading to a number of problems, including within the military, taxation, currency, trade, and mobility of citizens.
The checks and balances system is a key feature of the separation of powers, in that it allows for one branch of the government to ensure that the other(s) aren’t exceeding their power.

What are two ways the constitution allows our government to make decisions concerning individual rights?

Question by Young Quezy: What are two ways the constitution allows our government to make decisions concerning individual rights?
What are two ways the constitution allows our government to make decisions concerning individual rights?

Also, whats one situation where the United Sates government has suspended individual rights to protect the “common good”?

Give as much description as you can, thanks.

Best answer:

Answer by fredo
The Constitution gives Congress the ability to suspend habeas corpus (the doctrine saying you have a right to a hearing if you are being detained) in times of war or insurrection, effectively allowing Congress to decide that individual rights are outweighed by national security.

Also, the Constitution gives Congress the authority to enforce the 14th Amendment, which guarantees the same rights for all people. So they are allowed to make decisions regarding individual rights when it comes to making states give their citizens equal rights.

The government has suspended habeas corpus, once during the Civil War, once during Reconstruction, and again recently following 9-11.

Fund Capital America California’s Premiere Plaintiff Personal Injury Cash Advance Company to Exhibit at the 50th Annual California Attorney’s of California Convention













Fund Capital America


San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 27, 2011

Fund Capital America takes a look at the lawsuit and the case is analyzed by an expert team of legal underwriters. The lawyer for the accident or attorney for the accident (plaintiff’s personal attorney) will help the plaintiff with the application for a cash advance. Lawsuit litigation is serious business, but the aim is to take some of the financial pressure off of the plaintiff.

Personal injury attorneys in California represent many different types of accidents and injuries. When a client has suffered a personal injury, why should the attorney allow the plaintiff’s financial circumstances cause them to have to settle the case earlier than necessary in order to alleviate the their financial burden. The plaintiff should be free from financial woes, while their case settles, so the attorney can get the highest settlement that is deserved. Injured victims should have the ability to sustain themselves and their families, while awaiting settlement on their personal injury lawsuits. When an injured victim has to choose between low-ball settlements or the necessities of life such a food, rent, and clothing; nobody wins. Non-recourse personal injury cash advances provide a solution that allows the injured victim to take the financial advantage away from the insurers. Non-recourse cash advances can help clients who are having financial difficulties. There are No credit checks, monthly payments, upfront out of pocket fees, notes or security required of the plaintiff. Remember, there is no payment until the case settles. Cash advances are not secured by a lien on personal credit or home equity. If the Plaintiff doesn’t win the case, they don’t owe us back a dime.

The CAOC California Attorney’s of California is the leading California organization dedicated to preserving and protecting the constitutional right to trial by jury for all consumers and championing the cause of those seeking justice through our California civil justice system. CAOC is an organization of more than 3,000 attorneys who represent plaintiffs and consumers who seek responsibility from wrongdoers.

Rep. Kucinich: Obama Could be Impeached Over Libya

International military operation has begun in Libya, as a result of a UN Security Council Resolution authorizing a no fly zone, and other necessary measures. Some lawmakers are questioning how Obama could make this decision, without approval. Congressman Dennis Kucinich says Obama’s unconstitutional move would appear on its face to be an impeachable offense. He explains why he thinks the Constitution has been violated.
