Barack Obama's presidency has been marked by a steady erosion of the Constitution and the expansion of the executive branch. His actions have weakened the separation of powers, undermined the rule of law, and created an imperial presidency that is increasingly unaccountable to the American people.

The Separation of Powers

The separation of powers is a fundamental principle of the American constitutional system. It divides the powers of government into three branches: the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. This separation is designed to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful and to ensure that the powers of government are exercised in a balanced and responsible manner.

Obama has repeatedly violated the separation of powers by issuing executive orders that have the force of law. He has also used his executive authority to bypass Congress and to implement policies that have not been approved by the American people.

For example, in 2012, Obama issued an executive order that granted deferred action to undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children. This order was a clear violation of the separation of powers, as it was an attempt to create law without the consent of Congress.

The Executive Branch

The executive branch has grown dramatically in power under Obama's presidency. Obama has created new agencies, expanded the powers of existing agencies, and increased the number of employees in the federal government.

This growth in the executive branch has given Obama unprecedented control over the lives of Americans. He can now regulate virtually every aspect of the economy, from the environment to healthcare to education.

For example, Obama's Environmental Protection Agency has issued regulations that have imposed billions of dollars in costs on businesses and consumers. His Department of Health and Human Services has implemented the Affordable Care Act, which has forced millions of Americans to purchase health insurance or pay a penalty.

The Rule of Law

The rule of law is another fundamental principle of the American constitutional system. It means that everyone, including the president, is subject to the law. Obama has repeatedly undermined the rule of law by ignoring court orders, refusing to enforce laws that he disagrees with, and prosecuting his political opponents.

For example, in 2014, Obama ordered the Department of Justice to stop defending the Defense of Marriage Act, which defined marriage as a union between one man and one woman. This order was a clear violation of the rule of law, as it was an attempt to overturn a law that had been passed by Congress and upheld by the Supreme Court.

Obama's plan to subvert the Constitution and build an imperial presidency is a serious threat to American democracy. His actions have eroded the separation of powers, expanded the executive branch, and weakened the rule of law. If we do not take action to stop him, he will continue to undermine our constitutional system and destroy our freedoms.
