The Emerging Constitution

The Emerging Constitution is an excellent book, written over 40 years ago, by former New Dealer, Professor Rexford Tugwell. He, Professor Tugwell, favors a new U.S. Constitution--The Newstates Constitution!! Professor Tugwell was one of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's "brain trust" that was "created" to end the two Great Depressions-- the Hoover Depression of 1929-1932, and the equally severe ROOSEVELT DEPRESSION of 1937-1939. Tugwell was one who called for, in 1936, for the end of State governments, and instead favored a UNITARY national governmental structure, including GUN CONTROL, and a disarmed populace. ALSO: Tugwell favored the a "United States Police Force" to handle ALL local crime, thus over-riding the powers of local State, County, and City police forces. The Book Review, that I am writing about--'The Emerging Constitution' is prophetic as we have seen the rise, under both Democratic and Republican Presidents, of the IMPERIAL PRESIDENCY!! Looking at Tugwell's book-- "The Emerging Constitution": Tugwell favor a President, popularly-elected for a 9-Year Term, AND with no term limits. This new "strong-man" President would appoint 75% of the U.S. Senate for his/her 9-year term. (Sounds like the 2008 new Constitution of Myanmar (Burma)) There would be fewer bureucracies, but there would be SIX, not just three, BRANCHES of the Federal government. A. The Executive Branch--'The Presidency'. In effect, a tightly- controlling Super-President B. The Legislative Branch--the Presidentially-appointed Senate, and a House of Representatives made up 400-600 Congresspersons elected AT LARGE--by a controlled popular-electorate--whose qualifications to vote and run for Office, would be controlled by a National Court of Rights and Responsibilities, and 10-15 Regional Newstates Courts of Rights and Responsibities. Citizenship Rights would be under constant "review", also, in terms of participation of a REGULATED voting citizenry, ALSO under review by "Courts of Rights and Responsbility" on a citizen-by-citizen "case review". As was stated earlier in this book review, the President-- actually the new and more powerful Super-President would APPOINT 75% of the United States Senate--FOR LIFE--without a popular vote, and the Super-President would have the power to hire-and-fire members of this new Presidentially-controlled Senate. C. The Judical Branch, with a Super-Chief Justice with "special powers". The Chief-Principle or Super-Chief Justice would have the Power to Issue Pardons, like the new Super-President, but only after "consultation" with the Super-President. The Super-Chief Justice could be dismissed without any Congressional "over-sight", by the National-State Super-President. D. The Planning Branch---with 3, 6, 9, and 12 year National Economic Plans---similar to the 4-Year Plan of 1936 Germany, and the now- defunct Soviet Russian 5, 7, and 10 years plans. T
