Presentation transcript:

Chapter 14 Section 1 Objective: To understand the historic and ongoing debate over the scope of presidential power.

A. Why Presidential power has grown 1. The Presidency is in the hands of one person, rather than many, and many presidents have worked to expand the power of their office. 2. As the country grew and industrialized, especially in times of emergency, people demanded that the federal government play a larger role and looked to the President for leadership

3. Congress has delegated much authority to the President. 4. Presidents have the attention and respect of the press, the public, and their own party.

B. How Presidents have viewed their power. 1. Stronger and more effective Presidents have taken a broad view of the powers of the office. 2. Other Presidents have viewed a strong executive as a threat to liberty, and have interpreted the powers of the office narrowly.
