Obama and the Imperial Presidency
By Jack Balkin
The Bush administration has worked hard to increase presidential power. Will Barack Obama give it up?

Yes, we've all been wondering about that.
If Obama as commander-in-chief stops Bush's tactic of using boatloads of sneaky signing statements as end-runs-around-Congress and reverses many of Bush's draconian policies, perhaps the question will become: can Obama use whatever presidential power he has more wisely and on behalf of we-the-people as it was originally intended?
