True or false--> the constitution gives the president the power to declare war?

FalseTrue or false--%26gt; the constitution gives the president the power to declare war?
False, even though that many politicians, from both sides believe other wise.





The last time Congress declared war was 1941, when we united together as a nation to overcome the axis of evil. Ever since then, Congress has neglected their responsibility for declaring war and giving this power solely over to the President.





Instead of being patient and waiting for Congressional approval, our leaders have rushed us off into Vietnam, Korea, and Iraq, which did not unite us a nation and earned us global criticism.True or false--%26gt; the constitution gives the president the power to declare war?
False. The president does not have a right to declare war but presidents have sent troops to a country without declaring war.





For your information, the Korean War, Vietnam War, Iraqi War, and the Afgan War are not officially wars but instead are police actions since congress has not declared war.
False. Only Congress has the authority to declare war. The authority that they have officially given the president to declare war is unconstitutional and illegal.





Love your country. Love your freedom. But the politicians? I wouldn't pee on them if they were on fire....
False. While the president is commander in chief of the armed forces, the framers of the Constitution gave the power to declare war to Congress. Thus through the system of checks and balances, the ability to declare war rests with Congress.
If you had read the constitution you would have your answers already.


Go ahead. Read it. I dare you.


Oh no, wait, you can't. It will bite you.





You are lazy.
Is this your homework ??





EDIT





This is not the ';homework help section';, you are posting in the wrong section.
