  19. Executive Amendments • 12th: Election of Prez. And VP • 22th: Presidential Term Limits • 25: Presidential Disability Under the Twelfth Amendment, each elector must cast distinct votes for President and Vice President, instead of two votes for President. No elector may cast votes for Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates who both inhabit the same state as that elector (Habitation Clause). It is, however, possible for an elector to cast a vote for one candidate that is from the same state as that elector. The Twelfth Amendment explicitly precluded those constitutionally ineligible to be President from being Vice President

  20. Impeachment: • Article One of the Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power of impeachment and the Senate the sole power to try convictions.

  21. Other Executive Amendments • 20th LAME DUCK Amendment • 23rd Washington DC right to vote in Electoral College

  22. EOP • EEOB: Eisenhower Executive Office Building next to White House: EOP (1939) • National Security Council (Prez, VP, Sec. Of State, Sec. Of Defense, national security advisor) • Council of Economic Advisors (3 member body) • Office of Management and Budget (5-7 political appointees with 100’s of bureacrats)

  23. White House Staff David Axelrod • Chief of Staff • Deputy Chief of Staff (2) • Press Secretary • Counsel • Senior Advisor (3) • Asst. to the president for legislative affairs Philip Schiliro Jim Messina Mona Sutphen Peter Rouse Robert Gibbs Valerie Jarrett Gregory Craig

  24. Balance of Power?

  25. THE WAR POWERS RESOLUTION • Because it limits the President's authority in the use of force without an official resolution or declaration of war by Congress, there is controversy as to whether the provisions of the resolution are consistent with the Constitution. • The reports to Congress required of the President have been drafted to state that they are "consistent with" the War Powers Resolution rather than "pursuant to" so as to take into account the Presidential position that the Resolution is unconstitutional. IS IT CONSTITUTIONAL???
