Presidents as Commenders in Chief: Recognitions of Citizen Heroes from Ronald Reagan through George W. Bush
Presidents have long referred in their speeches to heroes of previous times. In 1982, President Reagan inaugurated the practice of inviting contemporary citizen heroes to attend his televised speeches to Congress and of recognizing them by name.

Francis Lieber and the Process of Constitutional Amendment
Despite considerable recent scholarly attention to the constitutional amending process, no contemporary work on the subject has analyzed the set of seven proposed amendments that Francis Lieber published in 1865, after circulating them in Congress the previous year. These proposals are important both because of Lieber's role in the founding of American political science and because of the manner in which Lieber justified change at a time when man…

Constitutional regimes may be divided into three types, the Single Lawgiver Model, the Immemorial Customs and Usages Model, and the Constitutional Convention Model. Each type provides for change differently. The first type of constitution, common in ancient regimes, is typically founded by a single individual, justified by divine authority, and difficult to change. The second model, with less discrete beginnings, claims to be the product of the d…
