There is currently alot of noise being made of the Democrats regaining both houses of Congress.
Will this have a noticible impact on the direction of the war on terrorism, the U.S.'s stance on Iran and N. Korea, or the problems facing Social Security and our nations health care system?
Has the founding fathers fears of Monarchial rule and subsequent giving of much power to the legislative branch been undermined by presidential action and precedent over the past 100 years? Have we placed too much emphasis on the symbolic govenmental figurehead's platform over the past 30 years?
Does the checks and balances system origonally put in place still work effectively?
