The 14th Amendment to the Constitution forbids the states to deny any citizen the rights granted by federal law. It also defines how citizenship is acquired and declares that all citizens are entitled to equal protection of the law. The original purpose of the amendment was to provide citizenship for former slaves and give them full civil rights.
Through the years however the Supreme Court has interpreted the 14th Amendment in different ways. The court has applied the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment to a number of cases. For example, in 1905 the court used it in Lochner v. New York to strike down state laws regulating working hours. In 1973, in Roe v. Wade, the court ruled that states may not prohibit a woman, under certain conditions from having an abortion.

"Everyone understands how praiseworthy it is for a prince to remain true to his word and to live
with complete integrity without any scheming. However, we've seen through experience how many
princes in our time have achieved great things who have little cared about keeping their word and
have shrewdly known the skill of tricking the minds of men; these princes have overcome those whose
actions were founded on honesty and integrity.”
Explain what you think Machiavelli is saying. Do you agree or disagree with him?
Answer: Machiavelli is saying that no prince stay true to his word or accomplishes much, he's basically saying their corrupt. I agree.
Machiavelli suggests that successful leaders prioritize cunning over honesty, contrasting it with the idealistic notion of integrity. Agreeing or disagreeing depends on one's perspective on ethics in politics.
Machiavelli compares the realistic behavior of successful princes who value dishonesty over honesty with the idealistic notion of a prince who keeps his word and lives honorably. He claims that many great leaders in history have succeeded by employing cunning tactics and disobeying moral obligations.
Machiavelli's observation had moral limitations which emphasize the importance of pragmatism and strategic thinking in political leadership. If someone agrees or disagrees with Machiavelli's perspective, it will depend on how they feel about how important ethics are in politics. Others may view Machiavelli's observations as a sobering account of the complexities of political power while others may argue that morality and ethics should always be upheld.
