Did the founding fathers succeed in creating a government with adequate seperation fo powers between the three branches of government, or does America simply have an elected king? What instances, court cases, laws (or law violations, depending on your position) support/disprove the idea?

Current legislation, already passed by the senate, makes bush a dictator. It is a virtual carbon copy of the document that brought Hitler to power in Germany.
Kiss separation of powers good-bye, we are headed into a dictatorship. Republicans fearing they will loose their powers in the election next month are trying to seize power another way.

The founding fathers didn't do enough to keep power in general out of the hands of the federal government. Everything was working out pretty good until FDR tried to turn us into a socialist utopia.

I think the government works when all three branches do their job.
Our courts are acting more like UNelected kings these days.

the founding fathers underestimated how powerful the President would be. Note George Washington when he was president only thought he should veto laws that he thought were unconstitutional, and did not insist that his cabinet members agree to a common position.
