Abstract

Over time Congress has delegated some of its powers to the president and both the Supreme Court and the public have tended to accept these delegations as legitimate. However, without the powers that the Constitution gives Congress and the Supreme Court, arguably America would not have a democracy as that concept is commonly understood among students of politics and, to a lesser degree, the general public. We highlight this vital theme in this chapter, and in doing so, trace High Court decisions on presidential power from the Civil War period to the present.
