The stewardship model, associated with Theodore Roosevelt, suggests that the president can do anything not expressly forbidden by the Constitution to act in the national interest. This model was prominent in the early 20th century, fitting the timeframe mentioned. The Whig model advocates for a more limited presidency, the New Deal model refers to Franklin D. Roosevelt's policies in the 1930s, and the institutional model describes the presidency as an executive branch with defined organizational structures and roles, not specifically tied to a historical period's philosophy on presidential power.
