It takes more than a president to shrink the size and power of the federal government. When both parties, in both houses of congress, depend on handouts and government programs to get reelected the chances of having a smaller, less powerful government is slim to none.
It's no coincidence that the size of the federal government has grown continuously since the adoption of the 17th amendment.
