During the New Deal and succeeding administrations national power and authority became increasingly more centralized in the White House and Executive Office of the President. As this institutionalized presidency emerged, increasing numbers of political functions were centralized in the expanding office of the president. This paper examines the changing structural relationship between the White House and the national party with particular emphasis on the distribution of patronage appointments and staffing the executive branch. The period of analysis begins with the Eisenhower administration and concludes with the Nixon presidency. The authors note that although subsequent administrations may demonstrate the unintended effects of this concentration of authority, it is unlikely that it will be willfully reversed. |
