Whig Defense of Legislative Liberty Against Executive Power
The speech defends limited government, arguing executive overreach threatens liberty. It cites Whig leaders like Clay, Harrison, Taylor, and Scott, urging restraint on executive patronage, veto power, and a single presidential term. It recalls historical parallels, including Napoleon and English Civil War debates, to bolster the call for heavy legislative independence and public accountability.
