Universal conscription refers to a system in which all eligible citizens are required to serve in the military for a certain period, typically during times of national emergency or conflict. This practice aims to ensure that a country has a ready and sufficient military force by drawing from the entire population. It often applies to both men and women, depending on the country's laws and regulations. Universal conscription can foster a sense of national unity and shared responsibility among citizens.

The National Convention was the governing body of France from the start of the revolution until the formation of the National Directory. They were originally made up of moderates, leftists, and rightists but that changed when Robespierre came into power. He led the reign of terror which removed most of the moderates and leftists from power and ended their lives. Following Robespierre's execution the Jacobins gained control of the National Convention and it became known as the Thermidorian Convention. It ruled very unwisely and is responsible for the great financial ruin that will later befall France during the reign of Napoleon. In 1794 they were replaced by the five man Directory, the Council of Ancients, and the Council of Five Hundred.

Inherent powers, which are not explicitly outlined in the Constitution but are derived from the president's role as the head of state and government, have significantly influenced presidential power over time. These powers allow presidents to act decisively in times of crisis, asserting authority in areas such as national security and foreign affairs. As a result, presidents have often expanded their powers by interpreting their inherent authority broadly, leading to a gradual shift toward a more assertive executive branch. This evolution has sparked ongoing debates about the balance of power among the branches of government and the limits of presidential authority.

The above response is completely incorrect, but out of respect I won't delete it. The Emergency Banking Act (which was signed by Congress in 38 minutes without any of them actually getting a chance to read it, and amended the Trading With The Enemy Act of 1917) allowed FDR to have unlimited power during times of war or a declared national emergency. Those powers could not be taken away unless the President decided that the national emergency was over. He declared the Great Depression to be a national emergency, abused the Act which was supposed to only be used during wartime, and never ended the national emergency. As of today (Oct. 15, 2008), that national emergency is still in effect and the President still has dictatorial powers over America. Resource: Senate Report 93-549 and others The emergency banking act was signed because FDR addressed that he would fix the banking crisis, so he passed the act and because many banks closed and many people lost their life savings the act gave banks the opportunity to reopen after the gov. found them to be financially secure.

When a national emergency is declared in the United States, there is no specific article of the Constitution that is automatically suspended. However, certain rights and provisions under the Constitution, particularly those outlined in the Bill of Rights, may be limited or restricted, depending on the nature of the emergency and the actions taken by the government. For example, during times of national emergency, certain freedoms like assembly or speech can be curtailed. The specific rights affected can vary based on the circumstances of the emergency.
