Professor Orentlicher Blog Published on NYU Press 'From the Square'
02/17/2017
Professor David Orentlicher has published a post on the NYU Press Blog “From the Square” on the subject of “Stopping a Rogue President.” The piece was posted February 15.
Constitutional safeguards designed to prevent the abuse of power have been circumvented, Professor Orentlicher points out, by the rise of political parties. He advocates for a system that shares power in the executive branch.
Professor Orentlicher served in the Indiana House of Representatives from 2002 through 2008. He is the Samuel R. Rosen Professor at IU McKinney and co-director of the Hall Center for Law and Health. He also has taught at Princeton University and the University of Chicago Law School. He earned degrees in law and medicine at Harvard and specializes in health care law and ethics. He also is the author of Two Presidents Are Better Than One: The Case for a Bipartisan Executive Branch, which was published by NYU Press in 2013.
