The great object of the executive department is to accomplish this purpose; and without it, be the form of government whatever it may, it will be utterly worthless for offence or defense; for the redress of grievances or the protection of rights; for the happiness, or good order, or safety of the people.”

The people who submit to it are governed by laws made neither by themselves nor by an authority derived from them, and are slaves.”
