"Senator Hillary Clinton said yesterday that if she is elected president, she
intends to roll back President Bush's expansion of executive authority,
including his use of presidential signing statements to put his own
interpretation on bills passed by Congress or to claim authority to disobey them
entirely."
I doubt that anyone would limit the power of the Presidency once they have the office. It is something that people might actually believe when they say it, but when it comes to being there, they find that they would rather use the power for their own ends. The ends don't have to be bad ends.
