Since Bush/Cheney came to power, they have have worked hard (and successfully) to expand on the powers of the presidency and vice-presidency.
If Obama gets elected to the presidency, will all of you republicans and conservatives still be happy with the Bush/Cheney changes or interpretations to the powers of the vice/presidency?

However, being at least the most liberal Senator in the US congress and in my humble opinion a borderline Marist thinker, I'm sure that we will see reversal on all those items.
Of course, first he has to get elected.
