I Agree...Originally posted by Tarquinius
Yes, why not the president? President is the head of the cabinet so he should be allowed to declare war, with a majority of 51%.
I think that the president can do anything unless people dont want with more than 66% or all ministers disagree.-=[Arkanjuca]=-

I voted for the prez to decide, cause he would lose the peoples support very soon, if he spontanously declears a war that he cannot handle!
Important note:
I think a poll in a constitutional clause, is an important matter! Therefore it should be made by (one or more of) the elected representatives... Other polls can be made by anyone?
Such a legislative poll, should also include the option:
- Invalidate this poll. So if there is a mistake/unclearity and it should not be amended this way, they people will have their say... before it's constitustionalized.
Historical note:
The elected repr. of a civ. did somtimes listen to the furious masses, and agitated for a war which they knew they could easily lose.
(Which also was the weakness of ancient Greek democracy, the demagogs. )My words are backed with hard coconuts.Comment

Group 2 option B. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with handing powers like this over to the powers that be who were voted in by us. If we don't like our pres asking us to constantly declare war, then vote for someone different. Do most modern demos declare war if some random Joe or Office Glen off the street puts up a poll? no. This is a demo, and we need to trust those we've voted in. If you can't trust them on their decisions, why vote them in?
Sorry, I ramble, and probably don't make sense right now. Excuse me.I AM.CHRISTIANComment

WHAT ABOUT THE MILITARY ADVISOR??
I think that he should have a say.Est-ce que tu as vu une baleine avec un queue taché?
If you don't feel the slightist bit joyful seeing the Iraqis dancing in the street, then you are lost to the radical left. If you don't feel the slightest bit bad that we had to use force to do this, then you are lost to the radical right.Comment
