The need to reform the nuclear weapons launch approval process

from The Union of Concerned Scientists:

"No one person, not even a president, should be given the sole authority to start a nuclear war, which could lead to the immediate death of millions. The existing system invests the president, no matter how capable or how reckless and impulsive, with such devastating power.

“We urge the president-elect to change this policy as quickly as possible... to require that two other elected officials in the line of succession concur with a presidential order to use nuclear weapons before the military carries out an attack and unleashes a nuclear war."
