From the Obama State of the Union Address what can he Constitutionally do? libertyunderfire.org/2014/01/from-the-obama-state-of-the-union-address-what-can-he-constitutionally-do/ Obamas State of the Union Address gives a long list of things that he considers important, as have State of the Union Addresses of the past, what is different this time is that he threatens to use executive orders to implement some of them if Congress does not, as kings or dictators do. The term executive order is not found in the Constitution. Executive orders were initially nothing more than inter-departmental communications between the President and his executive branch with him requesting some action on their part. Constitutionally they have no law =?UTF-8?Q?_making_function_without_first_a_single,_recent ,_law_of_Congres?= s. Congress must reign-in any executive that uses them to make or alter law. Article I, Section I clearly gives only Congress law making power. Impeachment is a proper response for any president who subverts or threatens the sacred separation of powers doctrine, as his oath requires that he “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.” See details in LibertyUnderFire.org
