I do understand what you are saying, I just don't agree with it.
Not the mechanics of what you say, only the process by which it is
allowed to exist.

that would be the US Constitution.It sets the "process".


And by that, I mean an acknowledgement (understanding?), of the
conditions precedent to its manifestation.
Put another way: The country defends the country, not the Executive
branch.




the country does not ACT until the leader says to act.
He is the head of the Executive Branch.
