Checks and Balances
One of the fundamental principles that emerged from the Constitutional Convention was the idea of separation of powers of the different branches of government.
This system of checks and balances prevents any one branch (Legislative, Executive, or Judicial) from having the power to rule over the others.
Describe a scenario in which the system of checks and balances might work to prevent something that might cause harm to the American people.
Alternatively, you can research and describe a historical event in which one branch of government was prevented by another from doing something harmful.
