Index535
This edition includes a special article on the development of the office of the President as a unique, powerful, national leader. The office is certainly one of limitless responsibility and honor, and yet, not all-powerful in the sense of the medieval monarchies or the more modern dictatorships. Springing from the Constitution and aided by the courts and laws enacted by Congress, the office has peculiarities that set it apart from any other office of political leadership.
