Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

The ideal answer should:
a. Discuss Woodrow Wilson's early statements surrounding separation between politics and administration, noting that although it has rhetorical appeal, this separation is nearly impossible to achieve in real life.
b. Explain how FDR employed the language of efficiency when detailing the need for the Brownlow Committee and how his efforts to impose order on an expanding bureaucracy were similar to those of Theodore Roosevelt in that both Roosevelts sought to enhance federal efficiency and improve quality of outputs.
c.Describe the efforts of other presidents to build on that beginning, including Eisenhower's convening of a second Hoover Commission, Clinton's NPR, Bush's PMA, and Obama's Reform plan.
