Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1, Explain how Americans' abstract beliefs about the American creed often conflict with political realities, and that this often necessitates some compromise of values.
2, Discuss cases where this might happenfor example, we believe that laws should be enforced generally yet we tend to break the speed limit; or we believe that honest is the best policy but are reluctant to be brutally honest if it would needlessly cause harm.
3, Explain that simply because this conflict exists does not mean the American creed is without meaning; rather, it serves as a starting point from which to evaluate issues, candidates, and the actions of public officials.
