The Oath and the Office: A Guide to the Constitution for Future Presidents Audiobook (Free)

Can the president start a nuclear attack without congressional acceptance? Is it ever a criminal offense to criticize the chief executive? Can states lawfully withstand a president’s professional purchase? Corey Brettschneider requires us on a deep dive into the U.S. Constitution to reply questions that, in our tumultuous period, Americans are asking as part of your before. In the record itself and from history’s pivotal courtroom instances, we learn why certain powers were granted to the presidency, the way the Bill of Rights limitations those powers, and what ‘we the people’ can do to influence the country’s highest community office-including, if need be, removing the person in it. Brettschneider breathes new life in to the Constitution’s articles and amendments, stressing its crucial principles and illustrating their relevance to all our lives today. The Oath and the Office empowers visitors, voters, and future presidents to read and understand our nation’s founding document.
