that's why they rectified that and elected alan frank on the the senate. when you look at the discussion of the veto power by the federalist papers it's not talked about as this sword to be used by the president to convince a congress to enact his or her program. it's discussed as a way for the presidency to protect its own constitutional authorities and to call furnish an additional security against the inaction of improper laws against laws that would be unfriendly to the public good. sko in one respect we have presidents who feel it is their role to promote an active domestic policy to actually in some instances integrate themselves with the activities of the legislature. this is something that runs against the framers. i think explains at some level why president obama has been having the problem he's been having in public opinion polls. he got too close to the legislature and the passage of obama care and the tarp and stimulus. in fact, he gets blamed for all of them even though much of those laws were written in congress. but if you talk about all th
