	Why did Hitler Declare War on the United States of America?

		The USA had gotten into the Great War in 1917, and the political aims of that war was never fullfilled — witness the failed League of Nations and now state of war in Europe.

	Violating the Constitution With an Illegal War by Rep. Ron Paul
		The last time Congress declared war was on December 11, 1941, against Germany in response to its formal declaration of war against the United States.
		The process by which we’ve entered wars over the past 57 years, and the inconclusive results of each war since that time, are obviously related to Congress’ abdication of its responsibility regarding war, given to it by Article I Section 8 of the Constitution.
		A declaration of war makes Congress assume the responsibilities directed by the Constitution for this very important decision, rather than assume that if the major decision is left to the President and a poor result occurs, it will be his fault, not that of Congress.
