“The Constitution supposes, what the history of all governments demonstrates, that the executive is the branch of government most interested in war, and most prone to it. It has accordingly with studied care, vested the question of war in the legislature.”
~ James Madison
(1751-1836), Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President
in an April 2, 1798 letter to Thomas Jefferson.
