"The President ought to act under the strongest impulses of rewards and punishments, which are the strongest incentives to human actions. There are two ways of securing this point. He ought to depend on the people of America for his appointment and continuance in office: He ought also to be responsible in an equal degree to all the States; and to be tried by dispassionate Judges: His responsibility ought further to direct and immediate. "

James Monroe, Virginia Ratifying Convention June 18, 1788
