Thank you.

While off topic, after reading the linked article, I cannot understand why a prospective nuclear agreement with Iran would not be considered a treaty.

I cannot understand why a prospective nuclear agreement with Iran would not be considered a treaty.

Because the orignal intent of the treaty making power of the President only applied to cease hostilities after a formal Declaration of War. It's part and parcel of being Commander in Chief.

It has nothing to do with commerce, trade, or agreements made to maintain the peace.
