“If these precedents are to stand unimpeached, and to provide sanctions for the continued conduct of America affairs-the Constitution may be nullified by the President and officers who have taken the oath and are under moral obligation to uphold it....they may substitute personal and arbitrary government-the first principle of the totalitarian system against which it has been alleged that World War II was waged-while giving lip service to the principle of constitutional government.” IfsWorldGivingFirstsMayHas BeensWarGovernmentAmericaPresidentMoralPrinciplesTakenConstitutionAffairLipsObligationWar Of The WorldsSubstitutesOfficersWorld War IiWorld War IArbitraryOathSanctionsPrecedentMoral ObligationLip ServiceConstitutional Government Author:Charles A.
