Question: What terms are served, by members of the assembly given authority to choose the president in 1824, under the document where Stewart indicated that "Wall of separation" was not found?

The United States presidential election of 1824 was the tenth quadrennial presidential election, held from Tuesday, October 26, to Thursday, December 2, 1824. In an election contested by four members of the Democratic - Republican Party, no candidate won a majority of the electoral vote, necessitating a contingent election in the House of Representatives under the provisions of the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution. On February 9, 1825, the House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams as president. The 1824 presidential election was the first election in which the winner of the election lost the popular vote. <SEP> The court noted that it "is a matter of history that this very practice of establishing governmentally composed prayers for religious services was one of the reasons which caused many of our early colonists to leave England and seek religious freedom in America." The lone dissenter, Justice Potter Stewart, objected to the court's embrace of the "wall of separation" metaphor: "I think that the Court's task, in this as in all areas of constitutional adjudication, is not responsibly aided by the uncritical invocation of metaphors like the "wall of separation," a phrase nowhere to be found in the Constitution." <SEP> strict separation of powers did not operate in the united kingdom, the political structure of which served in most instances[citation needed] as a model for the government created by the u.s. constitution. [citation needed] under the uk westminster system, based on parliamentary sovereignty and responsible government, parliament (consisting of the sovereign (king-in-parliament), house of lords and house of commons) was the supreme lawmaking authority. the executive branch acted in the name of the king ("his majesty's government"), as did the judiciary. the king's ministers were in most cases members of one of the two houses of parliament, and the government needed to sustain the support of a majority in the house of commons. one minister, the lord chancellor, was at the same time the sole judge in the court of chancery and the presiding officer in the house of lords. therefore, it may be seen that the three branches of british government often violated the strict principle of separation of powers, even though there were many occasions when the different branches of the government disagreed with each other. some u.s. states did not observe a strict separation of powers in the 18th century. in new jersey, the governor also functioned as a member of the state's highest court and as the presiding officer of one house of the new jersey legislature. the president of delaware was a member of the court of appeals; the presiding officers of the two houses of the state legislature also served in the executive department as vice presidents. in both delaware and pennsylvania, members of the executive council served at the same time as judges. on the other hand, many southern states explicitly required separation of powers. maryland, virginia, north carolina and georgia all kept the branches of government "separate and distinct." <SEP> Elections were last held between November 2011 and January 2012 which was later dissolved. The next parliamentary election will be held within 6 months of the constitution's ratification on 18 January 2014. The House of Representatives, whose members are elected to serve five-year terms, specialises in legislation. Originally, the parliament was to be formed before the president was elected, but interim president Adly Mansour pushed the date. The Egyptian presidential election, 2014, took place on 26–28 May 2014. Official figures showed a turnout of 25,578,233 or 47.5%, with Abdel Fattah el-Sisi winning with 23.78 million votes, or 96.91% compared to 757,511 (3.09%) for Hamdeen Sabahi. <SEP> the authority and responsibilities of the president was similar to that of the president of the united states: to serve the people of texas, and to serve as the head of the military and the state. these were detailed in the constitution of the republic of texas of 1836. the constitution specified a term of two years for the first elected president (sam houston) and terms of three years thereafter; the president could not succeed himself, but there were otherwise no term limits. the president was elected separately from the vice president, by popular vote, and there was no requirement to be native - born. a strict reading of the constitution provided for women's suffrage (that is, both men and women were citizens and could vote for congress, president, and other offices), but women and preachers or priests were not allowed to serve as president or in congress. indians and africans and those of african descent could not be citizens.
