Curbing The Imperial Presidency As the presidential race heats up, author Gene Healy is concerned the candidates and the voting public have a grandiose idea of what it means to be president. In his latest book, "The Cult of the Presidency," he argues that American presidents enjoy too much unchecked power.

Healy discussed his new book and why presidential powers must be limited in a speech at the Commonwealth Club of California. Join the Discussion at Gather.com |
