There such a thing as a "moral" or "just" war? Should wars be fought for the sake of humanity and a higher good? Can war ever be a noble cause? In other words, do the circumstances of war run counter to the very idea of a noble cause? Were Wilson's objectives truly motivated by the greater good?

federal power is further limited with a system of checks and balances that gives each branch of government a measure of power over the others.

explanation:

i just did something on this guy a few days a go give me two minutes to find it in my notes.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
