congressional approval for military conflicts emphasizes democratic principles and oversight, opponents argue that it may not always be practical or in the best interest of national security, particularly in emergency situations or those requiring a swift response.

Democracy is slow by nature, and thus bound to delay assistance to people who desperately and urgently need it. Non-congressional military action isn't something I'd overuse, but quickly being able to come to the rescue would be nice.

I think the President, should have a little more lead-way to deploy military assests especially in times of conflict.
