On the Fact that Even if Trump or Clinton Don't Expand Executive Power One Iota, the Groundwork that Bush and Obama Have Already Laid Is More Than Sufficient to Make Me Fearful of Either, Thank You
Yet one more reason to vote for Johnson (whose already risen to 10% in certain polls)..........................................................................................................P.S. And, no, this expansion of executive power didn't start with Bush and Obama (Lincoln, TR, Wilson, FDR, LBJ, and Nixon also having acted as despots at times). It did however accelerate under them (and, yes, for this I refer you to the scholarly writings and testimony of law professor, Jonathan Turley, and to the fact that executive orders were never, ever, intended to allow the President to make and/or
alter the law and/or to act in a capricious manner the way that Presidents Bush - on defense appropriations, wiretaps, Medicare Part D, etc. and Obama - on healthcare, immigration, Libya, etc. clearly have have over the
past 15 years or so).
