President Grande vetoed a bill passed by Congress banning anyone from putting posters of President Grande up in their bedrooms. President Grande’s veto was an example of:
  1. Separation of powers
  2. Checks and balances
  3. Republicanism
  4. Federalism
  5. Naiveté
Explanation
Answer: B - The veto is an example of checks and balances. It is a way for the president, a member of the Executive Branch, to stop the legislative power of the Legislative Branch. This is an example of a violation of strict separation of powers; in a strict separation of powers system, all of the legislative power would be held in the legislative branch.
