RE: " I do not think Jeb can break the law without creating a gaping hole in the fabric of our Constitution"

Yes, the Rats and their MSM would go into a frenzy unlike anything I've seem since the Watergate press frenzy.

But why would the governor be "breaking the law." What law? What makes judges' interpretation "the law" vis-a-vis an executive's constitutional responsibilities and our checks and balances?

I do not know Florida's constitution or laws but I heard a Florida official tell a reporter and the governor that the governor had the authority to act.

Judges' decisions are overturned all the time within the judiciary and, as pointed out above in #101, by presidents and governors.

Let's get the "constitutional crisis" over with.

IMO, any "gaping hole in the fabric of our Constitution" is there because the executive and the legislative branches defer to inferior courts and fail to fulfill their responsibilities. The Congress "ordains and establishes" the federal inferior courts.

If the issue makes it above the inferior courts let the executive and the legislative branches remind the Supreme Court of checks and balances as the court does its work.
