Unable: The Law, Politics, and Limits of Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment de Brian C. Kalt

Unable: The Law, Politics, and Limits of Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment

Autor Brian C. Kalt
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 oct 2019
Since the election of President Donald Trump, the Twenty-Fifth Amendment to the Constitution-covering presidential incapacity-has been a frequent topic of public discussion. Meanwhile, Section 4 has become a mainstay in television dramas, which usually represents it inaccurately.The country needs this complicated but essential topic explained.Unable: The Law, Politics, and Limits of Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment is designed to educate and inform the public about Section 4 in an evenhanded and accessible way. This book is not about President Trump; it offers no opinions on his fitness for office. By the end of the book, though, it will be clear how Section 4 applies to him, as well as to any other president.

Recenzii

If your thoughts have wandered to the subject of how to remove the President, Unable couldn't be more timely. With this deep dive into Section 4 of the 25th Amendment, Brian Kalt exposes the misunderstandings and hyperbole of the law in precise, often humorous, and very readable detail. Lawmakers, Cabinet officials, and partisans on both sides should find themselves reaching for this book.
In this highly entertaining and informative book, Brian Kalt provides a superb education on Section 4's nuances and wrinkles, imagining fascinating hypothetical scenarios to help readers understand how the provision works. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about the 25th Amendment.
Professor Kalt's masterful explanation of what Section 4 does - and does not - allow answers the questions anti- and pro-Trump partisans have about the amendment's potential use. It will not satisfy either side - a very reassuring result.
No one else has Brian Kalt's command of this formerly obscure, suddenly relevant part of the Constitution. I suspect that moving forward, it is to Unable that presidents, politicians, the press, and pundits will turn when in need of a sober understanding of the 25th Amendment.
As in his prior work on constitutional law and the presidency, Brian Kalt explains in a thoughtful and engaging way the workings of an important but often misunderstood part of the Constitution. This work will inform interested citizens yet also stimulate thought among scholars in the field.
