What is the rule of law?

  1. Laws are passed by majority vote

  2. No one is above the law

  3. Laws are suggested by the judicial branch

  4. Laws must be approved by all branches of government

The correct answer is: No one is above the law

The rule of law is a fundamental principle that states that no one is above the law, including individuals in positions of power or authority. This means that everyone, regardless of their status or position, is subject to and must abide by the same laws. A may seem like a plausible answer since laws are typically passed by a majority vote, but this is just one step in the process. Similarly, C and D may be part of the process of creating and enforcing laws, but they do not encompass the overarching principle of the rule of law. B is the best answer because it encapsulates the foundational concept of the rule of law.
