To your point, Cato.org has begun to publish, in analog and digitally, a new quarter: Free Society. This quarter's cover story is on point: "Cult of the Presidency; America's Pathological Relationship with Executive Power". It argues well that throughout the past, in particular the past 30 years, we the people have chosen to vote for an Executive who can do everything imaginable for us, and so we attract narcissists who promise they can. Of course, they cannot. It is the first time in my 64 years I've had doubts that the Madisonian system can survive. Peace.
Thanks for the courteous reply. And peace to you as well. (If that's possible.) Don't lose hope!!
