example of congress representative dedicating their legislative power to obtaining benefits for their states and districts? need one in counter to pork barrel earmarks etc
Could you argue that obama isnt an imperial president because he has to use powers of persuasion to help push legislation or approve appointments? Or is it not relevant
if imperial pres comes up ill kiss the invigilator.
Haha see the fact you say that makes me think it won't come up!
Regardless, good luck to each and everyone of you tomorrow, hope it all goes well and the paper is kind! And on a side note, no more politics at school ever again! (Unless I flop and have to retake )
DACA was an example of executive action - specifically prosecutorial discretion. An example of an exec order is the 2014 exec order 13468 which raised fed minimum wage

What would be the points for Obama being an imperial president?
Imperial: Libya Signing statements and executive orders (like on immigration, currently being looked at by Supreme Court with US v Texas) Executive agreements (Iran) Veto (Keystone Pipeline)
Not imperial: Checks and balances remain (2013 shutdown) Obamacare watered down by pro-life Dems Guantanamo Bay is still open Supreme Court has checked and his actions are generally ok (Sebelius)
