@TheCobbler,

That isn't what I said at all. I'll provide you with the text of the Amendment:

Quote:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

You will notice that regulated only applies to the militia, you will also notice that it says "right of the people to keep and bear Arms". It does not say that the arms should be regulated, only that the militia should be regulated, the people have a right to bear arms. As I said before, I believe that the use of the term regulate, refers to how the training of the militia will be done. At the time the Constitution was written, guns were very common place and just about everybody had one. Why regulate what everyone has as a common everyday tool, they didn't see the sense in it.

@TheCobbler,

Sometimes? Obama demands that everyone agree with him all the time, it's the reason for all the EO/EA's he has written. He can't lead so he uses his pen and phone.

As bobsal has posted earlier in this thread, Obama has posted fewer executive orders than his predecessors.

@Blickers,

That is only if you count the EO's. When you add in the EA's, he has the most. The majority of his 8 year term has been spent not getting his way so he signed an action or an order to get it.

Just so you know what I'm talking about:

Quote:

Obama has issued 195 executive orders as of Tuesday. Published alongside them in the Federal Register are 198 presidential memoranda — all of which carry the same legal force as executive orders.
He's already signed 33% more presidential memoranda in less than six years than Bush did in eight. He's also issued 45% more than the last Democratic president, Bill Clinton, who assertively used memoranda to signal what kinds of regulations he wanted federal agencies to adopt.

@Baldimo,

So in other words, he hasn't issued more EO/EAs than Bush.

Bush - EO-s - 291, EA-s by the math - 142 Total of 433
Obama - EOs ( current) - 226 EAs -198 Total of 424

Reagan is way ahead of Obama
Reagan had 325 EAs
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_directive
That was on top of his 381 EOs
That would be a grand total of 706 EO/EAs for Reagan.

Reagan, such an overachiever. Obama better step it up to try and catch up.

@parados,

The problem with the math is that the article was written in Dec 2014. It has been well over a year since it was written and Obama has written many more EO/EA's since 2014. So I think you math is a little off. Obama has more then Bush, not to mention that you now want to throw into the mix directives on National security?

Even your own link says that these are "Presidential Directives, better known as Presidential Decision Directives (or PDDs), are a form of an executive order issued by the President of the United States with the advice and consent of the National Security Council. The directives articulate the executive's national security policy and carry the "full force and effect of law".[1][2][3]" It doesn't appear that you are totaling those up for Obama. It's another desperate attempt to protect the leaderless Obama and his inability to work with Congress.

@Baldimo,

Yes, and this is where I can find those PDD listed by President. There aren't 200 for Obama. It only lists 41.

http://fas.org/irp/offdocs/direct.htm
When you look at both categories, Reagan had 392 PDDs.

Since you are claiming I am not totaling Obama's correctly, present us with a source that lists them.

All I am seeing is you making claims that are failing miserably with the only sources I can find. The first President Bush signed 116 PDDs of various forms in 4 years. Clinton had 139 in 8 years.

@Baldimo,

Basically, you are arguing that Obama has more apples and oranges and grapes than Reagan had apples if we don't count half of Reagan's apples and we pretend that Obama has more grapes than we can see.

Bernie Sanders suggests that the people of Kentucky should get rid of Mitch McConnell, and yet when it was time to help Democrats to get rid of him 2 years ago when he was up for reelection, who showed up and helped Alison Grimes campaign? HILLARY.
I searched and I could not find any articles or pictures of Bernie Sanders with Alison Grimes.
I found Elizabeth Warren,
Bill Clinton and
Hillary Clinton all helping Alison Lundergan Grimes with her campaign and the Democratic Party of Kentucky's campaign.
I think this is an important point to make that when help was needed Bernie Sanders was not there.

@TheCobbler,

Candidates do that don't they.

'After denouncing Mr. Obama over the weekend for an anti-Clinton flier about the Nafta trade treaty, and then sarcastically portraying his message of hope Sunday as naïve, Mrs. Clinton delivered a blistering speech on Monday that compared Mr. Obama’s lack of foreign policy experience to that of the candidate George W. Bush.

“We’ve seen the tragic result of having a president who had neither the experience nor the wisdom to manage our foreign policy and safeguard our national security,” Mrs. Clinton said in a speech on foreign policy at George Washington University. “We can’t let that happen again.”'
