Foreign Policy How a country deals with other countries

Goals of Foreign Policy National Security- Most important- keep us safe from foreign attack. International trade Promote World Peace Spread Democracy around the world.

Tools of Foreign Policy Treaties and Executive Agreements NATO- North Atlantic Treaty Organization- mutual defense agreement

2. Appointing Ambassadors- we send a representative to every country that we recognize their government 3. Foreign Aid- money, food, military support 4. International Trade trade sanctions- efforts to punish a country by restricting trade embargo- completely cutting off trade with a foreign country

Why do we give to others?

5. Military Force- last resort

War Powers Resolution Gives the President the ability to send troops into combat without Congress declaring war- President must notify Congress within 48 hours when troops sent into battle and must be brought home within 60 days unless Congress gives permission.

Vice President Constitution says 2 things about VP 1. In charge of Senate- breaks ties 2. If something happens to President then VP becomes President.

First Lady Is the President’s Wife- given no power by Constitution What would we call Bill if Hillary became President? Nice Hair Dude!!

Presidential Helpers The Executive Office- EOP Led by Chief of Staff- acts like a filter for the President- determines who and what gets to President Office of Management and Budget- (OMB) Prepares and monitors the federal budget. National Security Council- (NSC) Helps with military and foreign policy

The Cabinet Heads of 13 federal agencies- heads are called Secretaries- (example- Secretary of State) except the Justice Dept- Attorney General Created by President George Washington- not in Constitution Newest agency is Office of Homeland Security- established after 9/11 Appointed by the President- Approved by the Senate

Federal Bureaucracy Turn laws into action by figuring out rules and procedures. Run day to day operations of the government. Regulate various activities. Example- Congress passes a law requiring all Americans to have health insurance. Executive branch has to figure out how to make this happen.

Independent Agencies Executive Agencies- deal with specialized areas- NASA Government Corporations- run like private businesses- US Postal Service Regulatory Boards and Commissions- enforce rules and regulations- FCC, FAA, SEC

How do government workers get their job? Spoils system- President gives out jobs to supporters President Garfield killed when he would not give job to a supporter.

The Pendleton Act (Civil Service Reform Act) created the Civil Service System and limited number of jobs president could hand out. The civil service system requires people to pass a test and meet standards- it is a merit system.

Name that President
