Yes -in the sense that he has the power to go to war even without an explicit declaration of war from Congress. That seems to me to be in direct conflict with the Constitution. That has always bothered me, more than anything else about that office.

Quite frankly, I'm in favor of abolishing our entire system of representation in favor of a staggered system -- each sphere of society would be directly governed by its own representation, with little to no political contact between the two.
