>> Bureaucrats take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, not a loyalty oath to the President. The patronage/spoils system was replaced by a merit system back in the 19th century. Civil servants are are forbidden from partisan politics, either to favor the President or oppose him.

In your experience do you think there has been a change in the willingness to follow this pledge? That is, does it seem that this president and the last have evoked a greater commitment to partisanship than previous presidents, or you think maybe it is about the same?
