How does the U.S. Constitution encourage compromises?

The constitution is full of compromise. The two houses of congress are a compromise, between the power of the people and experienced statesmen. The house is supposed to be closest to the people, and represent their interests, and the senate is supposed to be composed of more experienced statesmen, with less connection to the people. This system allows both the will of the people without the tyranny of the majority. There is more compromise between the executive branch and the legislative branch. The executive branch can veto legislation passed by the legislative branch, and the legislative branch can overturn that veto with a 60% majority, so there's another compromise. The judicial branch can also challenge law created by the other 2 branches, and declare it unconstitutional. The whole thing is one big compromise.

What are the three branches of the federal gov and what are their primary responsibilities?

The executive (the President and the administrative branches) The Legislative (The House of Representatives and the Seante) The Judicial. The Supreme court and the Federal courts. The executive branch carries out the day to day operations of the government, enforces laws, oversees the operation of the military and disperses funds to run the various branches of government. The legislative enacts laws, oversees and investigates the operation of the administrative branch when problems occur, and decides how much the government is going to spend ( the budget) and decides how much tax to levy. The Supreme court decides matters of constitutionality (like they are doing now with the Affordable Care Act) and oversees the operation of the lower Federal courts. The Lower Federal courts are where matters of law at the Federal level are first brought.

What branch of gov is the dominant and why?

The executive branch is often considered the dominant branch of government due to its ability to enforce laws, direct foreign policy, and command the military. The President, as the head of the executive branch, wields significant power, including veto authority over legislation and executive orders that can bypass Congress. Additionally, the executive's capacity for swift action in times of crisis or national emergency can overshadow the slower processes of the legislative and judicial branches. However, this dominance is balanced by checks and balances designed to prevent abuse of power.
