Refer to the passage. "During World War II, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union partially abandoned an approach to international relations which presupposed the inevitability of a clash between communism and capitalism. Since the end of the war, however, Soviet publicists have revived three persistent themes of Marxist thinking—the inevitability of: (1) a revolutionary class struggle within each capitalist country; (2) conflicts between capitalistic Powers; and (3) intervention in Soviet affairs by the capitalistic Powers. Recent authoritative Soviet statements have cited a speech made by Stalin in 1928 in which he clearly enunciated these themes. Stalin’s recent electoral addresses, as well as those of other members of the Politburo of the Communist Party, attacked capitalism as a breeder of world conflicts and clearly indicated that the goal of Soviet postwar economic planning is the strengthening of the Soviet war potential.”

they were ratified in 1787. but in the late twentieth century, those provisions do not mean what they meant in

1787. the constitution is a legal document, and it is enforced judicially; but its meaning was hardly fixed when it

was ratified. in particular, the contemporary president has

far broader powers than the original constitution contemplated. it is remarkable but true that large-scale changes in

the authority of the president have been brought about

without changes in the constitutional text, but nevertheless

without significant illegality.

this is a paradox. is it not clear that constitutional

changes, if not textual, are illegal? the paradox has considerable relevance to our current thinking about the presidency in particular and about constitutionalism in general.

perhaps the framers of the american constitution feared

legislative power most of all; 2 but from well-known events

in the twentieth century, it is possible to conclude that it is

presidential power that holds out the greatest risks to both

liberty and democracy. the president is by far the most visible leader in the nation; he is often the only person in government with a national constituency. moreover, he is
