Hi Pick up a dry erase board on your way in, then when you get to your seat, you need to get a dry erase marker from the cups along the windowsill and chalk ledge. While I am taking attendance, you are to be completing page 158 in your study guide after you’ve reread the brief notes you took for Learning Goal 4 on page 157 Why Congress portrayed as a nurse? What does ailing Uncle Sam represent? What is Cartoonist saying about New Deal Programs? “Power to the People” – John Lennon

Learning Goal 4 The 100 Days is the president’s first 100 days in office, “honeymoon” period of sorts, will have highest approval during that time. FDR tried to get important New Deal programs passed and future presidents have followed the lead, trying to get most important programs passed in their first 100 days in office. New Deal=FDR’s series of government programs designed to get the US out of the G. Depression

The Constitution – page R28 A: Section 8 of Article I (The Legislature) on pages R31-R32. B: Sections 2-4 of Article II (The Executive) on pages R35-R36. C: Bill of Rights (first 10 Amendments) on pages R40-R41 Everyone: When finished, take your dry erase board and marker, and on a scale of 1-10 (1 being no power at all, 10 being the power to make every decision in your life for you) how much power do you think the Constitution intended for the government to have? Then, look at the outline (pg 156) and the New Deal table on page 787 of the textbook. Using the information in BOTH of those, combine them together to summarize each of the New Deal programs on page 157 in your study guide. The “Constitutional Question” for each is, “Does the Constitution give the government the power to do that?” Page 182 if/when done

Does the government have the power to do that? Page R32 Section 18 “Necessary and Proper Clause” (known as the “Elastic Clause”) The big question about government power then (The New Deal) and government power today (Obamacare)…is the Constitution written to give the government that much power? Are they necessary and proper?
