The Constitution at War

Does it seem to you that the United States is perpetually at war? How did that happen? What, if anything, can we do about it?Stewart was recently out at Montpelier, where David Adler, the former Director of Boise State University’s Andrus Center for Public Policy, taught a seminar on how the Constitution treats the most significant decision any country can make: whether, and how, to go to war. The Framers had some very definite ideas on the subject, but modern presidents, and many members of Congress, see it differently.
