Season 1 Episode 266
Here’s an interesting point to ponder: we think of the veto power as a presidential power but the power is found in Article I, Section VII, which we know creates Congress. This means the Founders intended the veto process to be every bit a part of the legislative process as well as an executive power. Why did they do this? What “grievance” found in the Declaration of Independence was the veto and veto override intended to rectify? What is the mechanism and process through which a veto takes place and how can a bill become law even if vetoed by the President? Our special guest today to discuss this powerful tool is Alex E. HIndman, Assistant Professor of Political Science at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts.
