Develop an argument that explains whether or not the powers of the presidency as executed since the Great Depression have made the presidency too powerful an office.

Answer 1

I think I might concentrate of Roosevelt and his "new deal" recovery from the great depression and the mobilization for World War 2. Others such as Kennedy with the Russians bringing missiles to Cuba or Truman bombing Japan with nuclear bombs or Bush with his invasion of Iraq based on faulty intelligence are extreme in acts of power but over relatively short time spans.
