Delegates at the Constitutional Convention were worried about having an executive branch because they thought a president would act too much like a King.

This fear of having another king was a real threat to citizens when creating the US Constitution. Considering that one of the reasons why America became independent was due to a King's actions, the delegates wanted to make sure that they did not establish a similar set up. This is why the Constitution consists of a system of checks and balances. This means that the power of the president is limited both by the legislative branch (aka Congress) and the executive branch (aka the Supreme Court).

Strong ties to the English crown -- that was not a factor in the success of the colonies.  In fact, the reality was just the opposite.  The colonies were very loosely connected back to the home government in England.  They developed their own forms of self-government within each of the colonies, which also featured different religious practices (based on groups who had come to the New World to escape religious pressures in England).  The "new" this and "new" that featured in your question is a clue to all that was happening in the novel enterprise that was the American colonial experience.  This new form of life would eventually challenge any oversight by the English monarch, and the United States of America became its own nation.

I'd say go for it! People should not be uncomfortable about this topic! It's historical, true, raw, and a great <u>topic</u> to discuss. (To clarify I'm not saying slavery is great, because obviously it was hell.)
