Do you think the president of the United States has too much power, just the right amount of power, or too little power? Be sure to apply your knowledge of other aspects of American government and of American history, and to explain your reasoning

In one particular area, the President of the United States has too much power.

Since the Vietnam War, the US President has been able to deploy the American military without a Congressional Declaration of War.

This ensures that the people's body hasn't had the opportunity to provide a check on the declaration of war.
