checks and balances--the three branches of government have equal power, and each balances out the other. Therefore, none can get more powerful than the other (in theory).
suffrage--the right to vote
impeach--to accuse an elected official of crimes or impropriety.
amendments--changes to the Constitution
Federalists: Anti-Federalists
Washington Jefferson
Madison
Hamilton
Delegated powers--powers given to Congress
bicameral--two sections. Congress is bicameral because it has two parts--Senate and House of Representatives.
