Are we living in times that warrant the unitary executive?
SHARE More Sharing
Having read the WSJ editorial yesterday, I find this core question to be the greater matter. Essentially, whether or not a unitary executive is warranted becomes moot, if the times we live today, in the here and now, are not those times of mere survival. Debating about the need for this unitary executive, that can act with energy, is actually a distraction right now. That debate was rendered years ago and our tradition of law has established we are a nation of laws.
