    Imperial President

    • 1203 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Imperial presidency is a term, popularized by the book, written in 1973, by Arthur Schlesinger, a former aide to JFK, called ‘The Imperial Presidency”. It is used to refer to a presidency characterized by the misuse and abuse of the powers of the presidency.. In particular, it refers to the misuse of power and excessive secrecy in dealing with foreign policy. The founding fathers intended the president not to initiate war but be a commander in chief and could only respond to an attack. They intended Congress to be proactive and initiate military action and that the president is reactive and supervises military action. An imperial president would misuse, abuse and ignore these powers. An imperiled presidency is virtually the opposite and is a term used when the president cannot act effectively due to continuous conflict with Congress. At least one of these two terms have been used to describe each modern president, sometimes both have been used for the same presidency, showing the phrase can be used very flexibly, and can often be down to personal opinion. Nixon described it as a façade created by liberals and defensive congressman.…

Since 1992 he had been producing, directing and starring in the gospel play I Know I’ve Been Changed which he had written but although he had quality material and performers he still did not have the success he was aiming for until 1998. Before becoming “Tyler Perry the most powerful entertainer in Black America” (Childs, 2012) he had to overcome many obstacles and forgive transgressions of others.
