Explanation:

The battle of Stalingrad was a warlike confrontation between the Red Army of the Soviet Union and the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany and its Axis allies for the control of the Soviet city of Stalingrad, current Volgograd, between August 23, 1942 and the February 2, 1943. The battle took place during the German invasion of the Soviet Union, during the Second World War. With estimated casualties in more than two million people between soldiers of both sides and Soviet civilians, the Battle of Stalingrad is considered the bloodiest battle in the history of mankind. The serious defeat of Nazi Germany and its allies in this city meant a key and severe turning point in the final results of the war and represents the beginning of the end of Nazism in Europe, because the Wehrmacht would never recover its previous strength nor would it obtain more strategic victories on the Eastern Front.

they were ratified in 1787. but in the late twentieth century, those provisions do not mean what they meant in

1787. the constitution is a legal document, and it is enforced judicially; but its meaning was hardly fixed when it

was ratified. in particular, the contemporary president has

far broader powers than the original constitution contemplated. it is remarkable but true that large-scale changes in

the authority of the president have been brought about

without changes in the constitutional text, but nevertheless

without significant illegality.

this is a paradox. is it not clear that constitutional

changes, if not textual, are illegal? the paradox has considerable relevance to our current thinking about the presidency in particular and about constitutionalism in general.

perhaps the framers of the american constitution feared

legislative power most of all; 2 but from well-known events

in the twentieth century, it is possible to conclude that it is

presidential power that holds out the greatest risks to both

liberty and democracy. the president is by far the most visible leader in the nation; he is often the only person in government with a national constituency. moreover, he is
