Answer to Question 1

Answer: An ideal response will:
1. Explain that the Warren Court had consistently expanded the rights of the national government and recognize that the Rehnquist Court was responding to that trend.
2. Explain that the Rehnquist Court was initially not committed to states' rights, but took up this mantra in the late 1980s when membership on the Court changed.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: An ideal response will:
1. Explain that the word federalism does not appear anywhere in the Constitution.
2. Explain that federalism is embodied in the Constitution through its enumeration of powers for the federal government, the supremacy clause, the privileges and immunities clause, and the description of the role of the states in electing the members of the federal government.
