No modern president may want to accept what the Constitution says but that doesn't change the fact that the Constitution stipulates that Congress and only Congress has the authority to declare war.

If this is the case, why has the Supreme Court not ruled the action of these presidents unconstitutional? Surely, the Court would grant cert on this issue, were they asked.

Why did the Sup. Ct. intercede in a national election.......its outside their jurisdiction?

Their election intercession notwithstanding, the normal role of the Court is to review cases on which lower courts have ruled. Apparently, no one has brought a case against Congress attacking their abdication of responsibilities.
