Granted it fun to rip on power, but a strong leader has his/her uses.
If you look at history when most countries are at their most powerful and exert the greatest influence they have stong leaders.(of you course you can make a good arguement that countries with great influance are a bad thing.)
What the US system attempts is guaranteed strong leader, no matter what the leaders personal abilities. I would say it is moderately successful in this.
