No Blank Check: The Origins and Consequences of Public Antipathy towards Preside

Description: No Blank Check by Andrew Reeves, Jon C. Rogowski Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description No Blank Check presents a comprehensive study of public opinion towards presidential power. Analyzing data from panel surveys, original experiments, and historical polls, the book shows that the public opposes unilateral power and punishes presidents who use it, indicating that the public holds presidents accountable for how they exercise power. Publisher Description Concerns about unaccountable executive power have featured recurrently in political debates from the American founding to today. For many, presidents use of unilateral power threatens American democracy. No Blank Check advances a new perspective: Instead of finding Americans apathetic towards how presidents exercise power, it shows the public is deeply concerned with core democratic values. Drawing on data from original surveys, innovative experiments, historical polls, and contexts outside the United States, the book highlights Americans skepticism towards presidential power. This skepticism results in a public that punishes unilaterally minded presidents and the policies they pursue. By departing from existing theories of presidential power which acknowledge only institutional constraints, this timely and revealing book demonstrates the publics capacity to tame the unilateral impulses of even the most ambitious presidents. Ultimately, when it comes to exercising power, the public does not hand the president a blank check.
