'Some in the party might be willing to overlook concerns... But the Constitution demands that we consider whether Biden, who just turned 80, can handle the responsibilities and challenges inherent to the executive office,' Adam Carrington writes.
President Joe Biden hands out pens after signing H.R. 1652, the VOCA Fix to Sustain the Crime Victims Fund Act of 2021, in the East Room of the White House in Washington, Thursday, July 22, 2021. Many, including a significant portion of Democrats, continue to ask this question as the 2024 primary and general election approach. Some in the party might be willing to overlook concerns about Biden’s fitness because they agree with his policies.
We see how this tendency played out across American history. Both Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln were derisively called kings. Recent presidents, whether Republicans like George W. Bush and Donald Trump or Democrats like Barack Obama, have been titled tyrants or despots by their partisan foes. The other quality by which Hamilton defined the presidency was “energy.” By energy, Hamilton meant vigor in executing the laws of the United States. Here, proponents of popular government had to get over their worries that a strong executive would inevitably lead to tyranny. Every good government needs a vigorous, energetic enforcement of its laws. Laws needed the threat and use of force to ensure persons obeyed them. Otherwise, we could not have the rule of law.
