  16. Federalist #51, Madison • Ambition must be made to counteract ambition. If men were angels, no govt would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on govt would be necessary • In framing a govt which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the govt to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.

  17. Different Bases of Support • House of Representatives= only directly elected officials; every two years • Senate= every six years; are selected by State legislatures until 1913 • President= selected by electoral college; state legislatures; no popular vote • Judiciary= appointed by President, confirmed by Senate. Life-time appointment

  18. Checks and Balances • President can nominate judges; propose, veto laws, appeal to public • Congress- approves budget, impeach president and judges, determine number and jurisdiction of courts, Senate confirms judges • Courts- can declare executive actions and laws unconstitutional.
