Since the large illegal alien street demonstrations there has been a lot of complaining about the Pres. It is mostly misguided complaining. The Pres must have funding from Congress before he can do much besides a temporary and limited assignment of troops in some of the border areas.

It's the same with Iran. And it will be the same as the economy gradually turns south. The Pres cannot just 'take care' of these problems. Most all Federal action begins with Congress. The Pres administers what Congress funds, and there is no reason why he should be required to have kinglike or other superhuman powers. Requiring that would be giving up our own powers as citizens.
