American political history can be understood as a perennial battle between state power and national power. It is a struggle that spans from the founding to our current climate. Should more or less power be given to the national government than currently exists? Explain your answer using relevant topics and arguments (for example, debates over same sex marriage, gun control, educational standards, environmental protections, etc.).

freedom of speech is also protected by the 1 amendment.

explanation:

here is pretty much what the 1st amendment says:

we pointed them north: recollections of a cowpuncher by e.c. “teddy blue” abbott tells us of the history of nomad cowboys in north america. as the   frontiers began moving west, trails of cowboys of the 1870s and ’80s drove herds of cattle from texas to the northern ranges and railheads, and then rode back south to do it again. they gradually pushed   native americans out of their lands, until in 1889 the   government transferred white   colonists the indian land.

c. the bill of rights clearly and definitively lists specific situations where rights can be limited.
