Recommended: Chapter 15 the powers of the president

An executive order is a rule or order issued by the president to an executive branch of the government. Executive orders does not need Congressional approval but they mean just as much and are just as important as those that were approved by the Congress. I believe that the president being able to make an executive order is constitutional. There is no constitutional rule that plainly gives the president executive orders. The term executive powers is used in Article 2, Section 1, Clause 1 of the Constitution which refers to the office of the President as the executive. The President is instructed to “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed” which is stated in Article 2, Section 3, Clause 5. This gives the President the power to make laws

However, black Americans were not always able to fight alongside white Americans. Despite the fact that black Americans have contributed in most, if not all, American battles, these forces were not integrated until Executive Order 9981, signed into law by President Truman in 1948. Executive Order 8802, signed by President Roosevelt, did prohibit racial discrimination in the national defense sector; nonetheless, this was signed in 1941, almost 21 years after the end of World War I.

Recent neuroscientific research on children and adults implicate failed executive functions, or their lack of engagement, not only in school-related performance issues, but in dysregulated emotional states experienced by those without executive function deficits.

  • The Power Of The Executive Branch

    1016 Words  | 3 Pages

    The power of the Executive branch has expanded over time to become the most authoritative division of government. In contrast to the Constitution 's fundamental designer, James Madison, who predicted the Legislative branch would dominate due to it’s power in making laws and regulating taxes/spending, the executive powers have proven to be superior and ever broadening. From the birth of the Republic, the President has sought to protect his rights and seek beyond his restriction of power. Setting the precedent as early as 1795, George Washington refused to relay documents relating to the Jay Treaty to the House of Representatives and saw his actions as a justified act of “executive prerogative.” Moreover, weaving throughout the Nineteenth century, presidents such as Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln conceived and added functions, such as the extensive use of the veto and the president’s direct and active role as Commander in Chief to their executive tool-belt. The Constitution communicates very little details regarding the President’s use of the power of veto and the role as Commander in Chief, but it was these presidents which established the major authority of the executive branch in these areas.

  • Power, Domination, Legal, Authority in the Obama Administration

    740 Words  | 2 Pages

    Karl Weber, a sociologist and political economist, describes authority as a form legal domination. Followers comply with the rules of these individuals because they consider their authority to be legitimate. While the legitimacy of domination does not have to be rationality, right, or natural justice, it is legitimate because individuals accept, obey, and consider domination to be required. The president of the United States is considered a traditional, legal and charismatic authority, where the legitimate domination rests on the idea of the legality of enacted rules for these individuals elevated to their status to give commands. The news article Obama's Executive-Power Use Shows He Still Holds Some Cards by NPR.com shows the President Barrack Hussein Obama II, the 44th president of the United States, as a traditional, legal and charismatic authority figure based on the characteristics of domination defined by Karl Weber.
