You're asking me to *strengthen* presidential war powers? Bold move. Here's why you're wrong. Presidents need speed. When terrorists hit or allies face invasion, waiting for 535 bickering congressmen to debate costs lives. Pearl Harbor taught us that. Syria in 2013 showed the flip side—Obama asked Congress, got tied up, missed the window. Dictators don't schedule their aggression around parliamentary calendars. And Congress? They'll just abdicate responsibility anyway, then blame the President when things go sideways. They always do. You're not actually constraining power, you're creating gridlock while enemies move. Real restraint comes from elections and impeachment, not bureaucratic slowness. What's your actual fear here—presidential tyranny or national incompetence?
