Tam prepared under my constitutional duty to recommend the measures that a stricken Nation in the midst of a stricken world may require... But in the event that the Congress shall fail to take one of these two courses, and in
the event that the national emergency is still critical, I shall not evade the clear course of duty that will then
confront me. I shall ask the Congress for the one remaining instrument to meet the crisis - broad Executive
power to wage a war against the emergency, as great as the power that would be given to me if we were in fact
invaded by a foreign foe.
