Presidential Power and the US system

Any G and P student contemplating Presidential power should consider that President Obama has decided to make executive order about the hot-button issue of immigration because it's the right thing to do...  after the mid-terms.

This may show the limits to the President's power, especially given the poor state that the US political system is in; the Democracy in America blog discusses this issue; specifically blaming the two-party system and the lack of 3rd or 4th parties which would encourage compromise. More about it here. A good topic to be on top of for Units 3C and 4C.
