I am curious where in the Constitution this is stated.
Could you ask him this?

Other than that it's assumed the executive is organized in departments, I'm pretty sure it's not mentioned, so the government is free to organize itself in any departmental structure it wishes.

I don't think the names and number of departments is of any real importance. It's all about what the government actually does, not what it calls itself when doing it.

Lars,

As usual, you make an excellent point. My concern is that
once they decide to create a Department of Peace, they
would probably grant it the power to do something, in
violation of the Tenth Amendment.
