ace....nice deflection after your MLK reference was exposed as irrelevant. My morality stance on the "rule of law" throughout this discussion has been directed at the nation's chief elected official, not private citizens....thus, my earlier reference to the oath of office.

The discussion here has NEVER been about a private citizens rights and the rule of law (on that issue, we agree), but rather the legal obligations and limitations of Congress and the president under the Constitution.

I look at one of her responses from your link:

Her view is no different than most Presidents.
Again....nice deflection by cherry picking one response. I said earlier that she agreed with Bush on several of the questions...as do I.

Look at all 12 of her responses collectively and make the case that she would be more likely to unilaterally attempt to enhance her own executive powers than Bush as you suggest.
