One, no. I don't expect him to become a despot.....yet. Thats why my post is titled 'classic sign of a despot'.
Two, if our checks and balances were securely in place then we wouldn't have had the patriot act signed into law without full debate, the USSC wouldn't have let the executive use Gitmo as a legal black hole, and we wouldn't have 'indefinite detentions' which is a clear violation of the US constitution.
