Lost Constitutional Moorings: Recovering The War Power, Louis Fisher
Indiana Law Journal
For the past half century, Presidents have claimed constitutional authority to take the country from a state of peace to a state of war against another nation. That was precisely the power that the Framers denied to the President and vested exclusively in Congress. That allocation of power was understood by all three branches until President Harry Truman went to war against North Korea in 1950.

These constitutional violations have been assisted …

Legal scholars were surprised, however, by the intense political reaction to Kelo (fueled substantially by Justice O'Connor's hyperbolic dissent), as property-rights advocates, legislators (at all levels of government), and media pundits assailed the ruling as a death knell for private property rights in America.
Kelo's combination of relative legal insignificance and high political salience makes it an interesting case study in cross-institutional dynamics, …
