Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The ideal answer should:
a. Identify Corwin, Rossiter, and Schlesinger as three of the most prominent scholars of war and presidential power.
b. Explain the arguments of Corwin and Rossiter, noting that both of them saw wars as leading to an increase in presidential power, with Rossiter maintaining that power could be used in other policy spheres and that a growth in power did not have to come from a great president in a great war.
c. Distinguish how Schlesinger disagreed with Corwin and Rossiter's assertion that presidential power decreases at the end of a conflict; rather, he held that it continues to accrue, as evidenced by how the presidency was resurgent in World War II,ascendant in the Korean War, and rampant in Vietnam.
d. Contrast Rossiter's idea of a constitutional dictatorwhich asserted that for a state to survive a war, political power had to be concentrated in the presidency, power had to be exercised beyond its traditional bounds, and the executive branch had to be liberated from constitutional prescriptionswith Schlesinger's imperial presidency, in which the presidency is virtually unchecked by the other branches of government in perpetuity.
