There was no such thing as an Air Force at the time the Constitution was adopted. I guess I could respond to your comments, if not for the fact that I already did.
And, where else, but this very topic:
The power of national defense is definitely specified in the Constitution. You take the original meaning of the text and apply it to today's world.
This is a blatant self contradiction. You said, only days ago, that only Clauses 2-17 taken through the eyes of the Founders could be construed as the intent of Clause 1. You said nothing about applying it to todays world, in fact you've repeatedly said the opposite, that the Constitution must be seen through the eyes of the intent of its authors (You started a thread today asking that Judges swear to uhold the intent of the founders only). Now you're telling us they should reinterpret it through modern lenses?
Which is it, Ace, 18th Century glasses or 21st Century? You can't have both.
