Thank you for responding and I do understand what you are saying but do you know if he chooses to do this can this be done by executive order or does it have to go through congress?
za_claws,
I’m sorry. I don’t know the answer to your question.
I have my own question about this, though: If the American people were opposed to such a decision, could they stop a Democratically controlled congress from following Obama’s lead. In other words, (with complete respect intended to you and to your question) what does it matter whether Obama can do this via executive order or whether he must go through the congress?
