The Four Theories of Presidential Power

There are four theories about presidential power. Each of the four theories explains the nature and extent of presidential power from different perspectives. Constitutional theory: Given that the second section of the Constitution contains records of executive power, the president must be prepared to keep his actions according to the record or implicit authority contained in Article 2 (Mason & Stephenson , 2012). Stewardship theory: The president is a "citizen's steward" and is believed to be responsible for doing what it is necessary for every country unless it violates the Constitution (Mason & Stephenson, 2012).

2) The presidential stewardship theory is strongly confident in the words of Theodore Roosevelt to instruct the president to do whatever is needed to the country, unless the Constitution or the Constitution prohibits such behavior Request the role of the president. Since the turn of the 20th century most presidents have adopted this model over their predecessors. 3) The privilege theory of presidential rights not mentioned in the text often leads the president 's role to radical fields more confidently beyond the constitution and domestic law. This "supreme need" theory defined by Abraham Lincoln and used by Franklin Roosevelt and Richard Nixon pushed the President's power to the Empire or dictatorship and used it as a trigger. Legal and Ethical Issues Food considered: Do you think that it is the position of President George W? Is Bush this type?

Advocates of constitutional theory like William Howard Taft believe that presidential power is severely restricted. According to constitutional theory, the president can only be listed in the Constitution or have those powers that can be granted by Congress under constitutional powers. Taft states in his book "Our Supreme Court Secretary and Its Power". As I imagined, the real view of the executive function is implicitly implied that the president can not exercise something that the fair and reasonably can not go back to a specific power implicitly implied in this grant Although it is appropriate, it is appropriate and necessary to exercise it. This specific subsidy must comply with the "Federal Constitution" or the legislation passed by Congress. In his view, this is for public good, so he has no uncertain rest of power. . .
