It will readily be comprehended, that a man who had himself the sole
disposition of offices, would be governed much more by his private inclinations
and interests, than when he was bound to submit the propriety of his choice to
the discussion and determination of a different and independent body, and that
body an entire branch of the legislature. The possibility of rejection would be
a strong motive to care in proposing. The danger to his own reputation, and, in
the case of an elective magistrate, to his political existence, from betraying a
spirit of favoritism, or an unbecoming pursuit of popularity, to the observation
of a body whose opinion would have great weight in forming that of the public,
could not fail to operate as a barrier to the one and to the other. He would be
both ashamed and afraid to bring forward, for the most distinguished or
lucrative stations, candidates who had no other merit than that of coming from
the same State to which he particularly belonged, or of being in some way or
other personally allied to him, or of possessing the necessary insignificance
and pliancy to render them the obsequious instruments of his pleasure.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — President Bush said Tuesday that the possibility of an avian flu pandemic is among the reasons he wants Congress to give him the power to use the nation’s military in law enforcement roles in the United States.
