Well, my British friend, this is the best that civilization has ever come up with and is likely to ever come up with in answer to those very questions.
Who warrants power? We The People
On what basis do they warrant it? through fair democratic representation in accordance with their basic human rights
What purpose should it serve? The power of We The People, if instituted properly and its spirit subsequently safeguarded through the generations, should serve We The People.
And some have ideas that will revitalize the U.S. Constitution.

Nietzsche's
The Will To Power is a mishmash of aphorisms and journal scribblings which was largely assembled posthumously. At his best, Nietzsche is a dark poet such as in
Thus Spake Zarathustra. When he's good, he's attacking Hegel in his own roundabout and often contradictory way, and when he's bad, which is most of the time, he's really ridiculously juvenile and downright goofy.
