Takeover: The Return of the Imperial Presidency and the Subversion of American Democracy
For my sons, William and Peter
[The Bush-Cheney administration] puts forward a false choice between the liberties we cherish and the security we demand. I will provide our intelligence and law enforcement agencies with the tools they need to track and take out the terrorists without undermining our Constitution and our freedom.
Senator Barack Obama, presidential campaign address on national security policy, August 1, 2007
I think the American people understand that there are some trade-offs involved. I think its important to recognize that you cant have a hundred percent security and also then have a hundred percent privacy and zero inconvenience. You know, were going to have to make some choices as a society.
President Barack Obama, responding to the disclosure that the National Security Agency was systematically collecting records about Americans domestic phone calls in bulk, June 7, 2013
This history of national-security legal policymaking in the Obama administration is primarily based on my interviews with more than 150 current and former government officials, many of whom I spoke with on multiple occasions. Where possible, I cite these officials by name. Most of them agreed to speak with me on background rules, meaning that I would not identify them as sources of particular information. I sought to corroborate accounts by cross-referencing their memories and claims with multiple witnesses.
Power Wars also quotes internal government documents that are not, as of this writing, available for public scrutiny. Where possible, I cite publicly available sources, including leaked or declassified documents, congressional testimony, oversight reports, court files, memoirs, and contemporaneous news articles.
Finally, this book contains dialogue from private conversations and meetings. I use italicized text to signal remarks that have been reconstructed, from memories or notes, in approximate form. This practice extends to reconstructed dialogue I have drawn from former officials memoirs, witnesses testimony about previous events, and other journalists work.
