Answer 7

The rule of law is a system in which the:

Government and its officials (including agents) are required to follow the law

Laws are clear, publicized, stable and just, are applied evenly. (This also includes the personal security rights of the public)

Process in which the laws are administered and enforced is fair and efficient.

Justice is delivered timely by the right people (meaning logical, independant, ethical, and so forth)

The rule of law is the underlying framework of rules and rights that make prosperous and fair societies possible. The rule of law is a system in which no one, including government, is above the law; (Of course there are arguments whether the government truly is below the law) where laws protect fundamental rights; and where justice is accessible to all.

Answer 16

One way for the Constitution to be changed or amended is the House of Representatives and the Senate (Houses of Congress) propose a constitutional change. This requires a 2/3 vote in each house. Once this happens, changet is submitted to the states for confirmation. legislatures of the states must ratify the change, within a certain amount of time.
Then it becomes part of the constitution..... It's a very long process and that's why it usally doesnt happen! lol
