 In reality, I present this as a provocative “wouldn’t it be interesting if…?”. There are critical, and likely dispositive, historical and prudential dynamics left unexamined, as well as what our very own sense of national self would think about expressing itself differently. Nevertheless, this structural paradox does seem to frustrate American political expression and contribute to the agitation of its passions. Is this who we are?

It's a little hard to understand the methodology of this draft. No actual discussion of constitutional language, no discussion of history, no connection to any existing literature of any kind—the obvious best route to improvement is to abandon the solipsism and to put the next draft into contact with at least some of the sources, primary and secondary, on the constitutional design and evolution of the presidency. It would also be useful to clarify why the particular vagaries of this moment's political climate are especially relevant to evaluation of the presidency as it has existed since the Second World War, dependent as that is on the relations between civil and military aspects of government, a subject which you never take it upon yourself to mention.
