Presidential Problems

Presidential Problems is by Grover Cleveland and gathers four essays. The contents list The Independence of the Executive, The Government in the Chicago Strike of 1894, The Bond Issues and The Venezuelan Boundary Controversy. A note on the volume says that two of the essays were originally delivered as addresses at Princeton University, and that the other two appeared first in the magazines.

One essay says it is only in the selection of the President that the body of the American people can by any possibility act together and directly in the equipment of their national Government. The writer also says that a minority of all the voters in the land can determine, and in some cases actually have determined, who the President should be, and that he believes a way should be devised to prevent such a result. The text also records that his Lordship again touched upon the Monroe Doctrine for the purpose of specifically disclaiming its acceptance.
