The term "Bourbon Democrats" was never used by the Bourbon Democrats themselves. It was not the name of any specific or formal group and no one running for office ever ran on a Bourbon Democrat ticket. The term "Bourbon" was mostly used disparagingly by critics complaining of viewpoints they saw as old-fashioned.[4] A number of splinter Democratic parties, such as the Straight-Out Democratic Party (1872) and the National Democratic Party (1896), that actually ran candidates, fall under the more general label of Bourbon Democrats.

B. Explain one way in which the War Powers Resolution might affect the scenario.

C. Explain one reason why it is difficult for Congress to check the power of the president to commit troops despite the War Powers Resolution.

So he was not taking to declare war.
