Chief Justice Warren’s leadership marked a force in social issues. Along the lines of desegregation, election reform and the rights of defendants. Then in 1969 Warren Burger was named Chief Justice.

Americans held off the German counterattacks with assistance of nearby Allied warships and fighter planes based in Sicily. On September thirteenth, and again on the fourteenth, the Germans came very close to driving the Allied troops back into the sea. Allied reinforcements were poured into the narrow beach head by boat and more .....

.... ‘provided France with a constitution,’ a basses that the Assembly could remodel France around. However, constitutions were new to this time in history and the constitutional writers needed time to discover the art of preparing such a document considering the lack of knowledge they had in the field.
