I don't know wha your talking about but when you talk like this I stop listening because it makes no sense, and sometimes I just sympathetically nod to make a person feel good even though they are babbling.
I think you are trying to mix up two seperate issues that are completely unrelated. With regard to security concerns, the **elected** president is, unless this has become a facist country, the highest power and executor of authority and power, which includes ALL security, state secrets, and matters of military and national security.
Yes, Virginia, the government can not tell our elected official what he can and can not expose to the public or foriegn governments. The government can not tell OUR PRESIDENT what he can and can not keep secret from the people.
What is this, Nick Shield in Marvel Comics?
As the **elected** president, a landslide election, BTW, the President is the ultimate authority in such matters.
As for the boarder policies held up in the courts, we shall indeed see if he has likewise the same powers. Although in the case of immegration policy, that is set by Congress, although the President likewise has exclussive constitutional rights in this area, which was recogniked when that Bigoted court system that you love so much struck down Arizona's use of state policing agencies on the flimsy grounds that it interfered with the Presidents right to make federal policy in an area of its concern.
Yeah they court is full of leftist bigots.
Nothing new there.

I don't give a fuck about the experts in Intelligence who fucked over Snoden, screws Israel and carries out its own agenda, and couldn't anticipate 9-11 when the Taliban anounced its intentions on National TV on 60 minutes.
