The presidency was designed to prevent tyranny through a system of separation of powers that inhibits presidents from exercising sufficient power to meet the demands and expectations that developed over time. Each new president dreams of success, only to be crushed by the... The American public hungers for a heroic leader. From John F. Kennedy to George W.

Yet, over time, presidential power has risen and congressional power declined to a point...
