The foreign affairs powers of congress come from the constitution and the what?

The United States Constitution divides foreign policy powers, there are six basic ways in which Congress can originate or shape foreign policy


Should congress or the president have more power in conducting foreign affairs?

I think that both Congress and the president should have power in conducting foreign affairs. Some powers are not listed in the Constitution but both the president and Congress should have some exclusive foreign policy powers.


What are the implied powers of the president in foreign policy making?

The implied powers of the president in foreign policy making is the draft. Abraham Lincoln implemented the draft during the civil war.


List 5 expressed powers in the constitution that you think are the most important?

The most important power in the constitution is the taxing and spending power given to Congress. Other important powers include the president's appointment and veto powers, Congress' foreign affairs and spending powers.


Why did the constitution specifically describe the powers of the Congress but remain vague about the powers of the president?

The Constitution's division of powers leaves the President with some exclusive powers as Commander-in-Chief, Congress with certain other exclusive powers, and a sort of "twilight zone" of concurrent powers. Congress also has the power to limit the powers of the President.The Constitution describes the powers of Congress more than those of the president because initially Congress was supposed to rule the country while the president didn't do much.
