Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1. Explain that, historically, presidents have higher approval ratings at the beginning of their terms than at the end of their terms in office.
2. Clinton's approval ratings increased with the tech-driven boom. George W. Bush's approval soared after the 9/11 terrorist attacks (rally effect/rally-round-the flag effect), but fell when economic growth slowed and with his reaction to Hurricane Katrina.

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Define the president's constitutional role as diplomat in chief. The president negotiates treaties, executive agreements, and congressional-executive agreements with foreign nations.
2. Describe the role of commander in chief. While only Congress can declare war, the president can order troops into battle without formal war declarations.
