Harold Koh, David Barron, and Martin Lederman, all legal scholars with a record of emphasizing limits on presidential power, changed their views when they became executive branch lawyers in the Obama administration. Koh found a way to justify President Barack Obama's unilateral use of force in Libya, while Barron and Lederman provided justification for the targeted killing, without judicial hearing, of U.S. citizens identified by the executive branch as senior operational terrorist leaders. This article considers whether these changed approaches can be justified by the scholars' changed roles.

Dick Cheney, John Yoo, and others incorrectly claim that Alexander Hamilton's vision of an "energetic executive" contemplated a president with broad, even plenary power over the use of military force. In fact, neither Hamilton's writings nor the text of the Constitution itself embraces this notion. In practice, unilateral presidential decisions to order the use of military force have been neither wise nor necessary, outside of the limited emergency defensive context. Recent episodes involving Libya, Syria, and ISIS expose the failure of the energetic executive model.
