This timely session will explore the origins of executive power by analyzing George Washington as a Constitutional thinker and practitioner. Washington not only played a vital role in framing the Constitution as the president of the Philadelphia Convention, but he also put the document into practice as America’s first president. Washington’s experience provides helpful context for our debates over the proper limits of executive power today.
