I’m a constitutionalist, and a Lockean one at that.
Article I is gone. Congress is the president’s rubber-stamp. The president’s agencies write the regulations we live under, with scotus filling in the social justice gaps as necessary.
From the rhetoric of this campaign season, one would suspect the office of the American President has more in common with that in an authoritarian banana republic than the office held by George Washington.
Whoever is elected this November, he/she will have the despotic powers accumulated by Obama.
There have been numerous Presidential elections that were far worse than this. History even tells us so.
