"It isn't a tangential issue in regards to the "unified executive" idea. Its the main issue. " Are you deliberately being obtuse? The unified executive idea, taken in isolation, isn't the whole thing. Just that it, taken with the rest, shows very fascist leanings. Fascism isn't a single principle, although the infallible leader is an important aspect. But a collection of things that describe.
