Political theorist, John Stuart Mill believed that in the case of the US Civil War, a US president, such as President Lincoln, should be able to meet a serious crisis even if it meant taking on extraordinary powers that might violate the US Constitution. In such a situation, suspending for example habeas corpus, to protect the Union was to be expected. It was an emergency that required exceptional presidential powers.
