As someone with a degree in political science specialized in the pragmatics of the American system of government, let me assure you that questions of the actual mechanisms of government are decidedly not neutral but both highly contentious and with positions highly correlated with political ideology.
If you mean, instead, things like “the text of the Constitution”, that's somewhat less contentious, but pretty distant from the actual mechanisms of government.
