The president is just arrogant, instead of coming to congress he illegally acts on his own when we are faced with a crisis that does require action, Paul added. Though I am one that is hesitant to be involved in the civil war in the Middle East, ISIS is now a threat to the consulate. They are a threat to our embassy in Baghdad. We should act but within the will of law. The Constitution says that only Congress may declare war yet this president has in Libya and this week in this area committed our sons and daughters to a war that isnt authorized by Congress. Had I been the president I would have called for a joint session of Congress. I would have laid out the threat and I would have requested congressional authority to respond. By failing, he missed the chance to galvanize the country and to become a great American leader. How did we stray so far from the Constitution? he said. :And how do we find our way back to the traditions of the founders?
