The Constitution vanishes[edit]

I deleted

"The President wants to preserve his sole right, under the US Constitution, to declare war, and denies he is a pacifist."

I've never read the novel in question, but the plot spoiler section claims that the US president is attempting to preserve his right to declare war. That right belongs to the Congress, not the president.
