2009 prompt

A. Two advantages for the House of Reps include having to live in the state they represent and that they get to represent smaller districts.

B. Two differences between senate and house include:
- different terms for different positions such as life jobs for Supreme Court judges and short senate terms that cause people to act differently depending on if they will be reelected or if they don't have to worry about it.
- Separation of  powers allows a harder time to get bills passed so people might be more crafty at going to the right congressional department to get something passed.

C. Because of the separation of powers which leads to the the difference in terms, bills may be passed in one house and not the other because of direct election of senators.
