Which President has damaged federalism more: Bush Jnr or Obama?
Just brushing up on my PhD in the American Political system but I've now realised that I need to update my notes to more current situations.
The debate is asking which President has damaged the Federal aspect of America's politica system more and by that i mean they've increased the power of the Federal government at the expense of reduce power from the state governments.
An example could be that President Bush pushed for the passing of the No Child Left Behind Act, which led to all schools being tested on a national standard, thus disabling states from taking their own initiative in setting grade boundries.
