      No, because the subject is “the power”, which is singular.

        Huh…

        Thanks for pointing that out. I had to read it again a few times to get it. It still feels like it doesn’t flow as much with is.

        I wonder is that a me problem and that it sounds correct to most people, or just a curiosity of the language.

        Also, is the subject of the sentence always definite or can it sometimes be ambiguous?
