Terrorism became a part of life during the 1972 Olympics so this will be a problem for many years to come. If the argument is the President needs to consolidate power to fight terrorism, should all future Presidents do the same?

As long as Americans stand guard to ensure their freedoms I don't think we have to worry about a dictator taking over. George W. Bush seems to think he has all this power but in reality he doesn't. The people still rule the USA when they want to. It's just that most people today don't care. When the majority sees their lives affected, like starting a draft again, they will come out in droves to protect the rights granted to them in the Constitution.

They shouldn't have that much power. That kind of power will be our undoing and we didn't make the mistake. I don't want to be a Bush Basher, but he needs to have someone Bash some wisdom in his head, He is too worried about being popular and liked, which I don't think he is neither. He is flexing his power because he can. Look, see what I can do and you can't stop me. I am above the law. Doesn't say to much for his lady. Look, this war is going to go on for at least 2 more years and maybe more. We got no business being over there. He hasn't killed enough of us yet. He is going to win this war, even if it cost the very last American. What a dork. What were people thinking when they put him back into office?

What power has he given himself? Every other president has has the exact power Bush has, how they chose to use it may be a different matter. Any new "power" was approved of by the congress. As far as I know, the constitution hasnt been changed, until then, some of you people out there need to get out of your conspiricy theory mentallity. You scare me more than Bush.

Oh, course the place of work of President-choose is actual. How can everybody doubt that? properly, perhaps people who do in comparison to Obama and stay in a vacuum do not choose to admit it, yet maximum thinking human beings comprehend a transition team and President-choose have professional government enterprise with a federally funded budget.

Neither Bush nor anyone else should have that much power. Most would use the powers wisely but we never know.

Powers enjoyed by the present President can be enjoyed by the succeding presidents except when nullified by Legislature.

All of the Presidents have equal power to each other and they always will have the same amount of power. It was how the nation was set up and how it always will be.

They will also need a special force of Ninjas. I would call them The Delta Clowns.

First let's think about why Bush was re-elected to start with.
