Just so you all know how the law was changed instead of jumping to conclusions .

The last state election the Liberal Party(republicans ) won the lower house but did not win the senate so they joined with the member for the gun party to have a majority and they wanted the gun laws changed and so it was changed to get then on side .

Come the next election both the Lib's and the shooters party will be kicked out people have had enough of the Lib's after 2 terms and the shooters party shot them self's in the foot after the woman killed her father and proved police checks are necessary even if you wish to just shoot a gun at a gun range but don't wish to own one .

why does it matter to you so much what we do within our own borders? It is OUR decision, not yours


The reason it matters is because your NRA are here trying to change our gun laws .Stop inviting them!


HA HA HA

We don't that's part of the problem

Yes you do!! It isn't like you don't have a big moat around your country. Someone invites them. Stamps their visa or lets them in through your firewall.

The legal requirements are laid out in the constitution. Natural born, age 35.

The practical requirements are $1-$2 billion cash to run a campaign. Name recognition helps. Not to many burned bridges. Decent looks. Reasonable voice. Ability to bald face lie with a straight face. Willing to kiss babies. In some states to get your name on the ballot you must be nominated by the party, in others a pile of petitions will do.

Glenn, your rants alone are worth the price of admission. Little gray men everywhere changing your way of life from 10,000 miles away, sneaking ashore with laundry soap to wash the brains of the unwary into gun toting zombie clones of the US NRA.....ROTFLMAO!

The really sad part is that you really believe that drivel and have so little respect for your own voting citizens that you think they can be so easily swayed by outside influence. Maybe the change in thought comes from within.

Or maybe a moat is no longer effective and you should consider building a wall around Australia.

One thing may be for sure. My theory about whether the POTUS really has any power or whether the power really lies with the congress.

Good question, Bob.

POTUS is not 'King of America'.

Under the US Constitution, POTUS has very LITTLE Power in the Federal Government.

About the only power that POTUS has that can not be overruled at will is the power to issue Pardons.

On everything else, POTUS can be overruled by Congress.

Essentially, POTUS is the 'head bureaucrat of the US Federal Government'.

Two positions in the US Federal Government that have a LOT more direct political power are the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, and the Majority Leader of the US Senate.

The powers of Executive (Bureaucratic) Branch of the US Federal Government are limited by The Constitution, by Congress, and by the Judicial Branch.

The powers of the Judicial branch are limited by The Constitution and by Congress.

The powers of Congress are limited by The Constitution.

And, imo, this is as it should be.

In any 'contest of urination' over power in the US Federal Government, Congress is going to come out on top.

King a very good selection, except for the Middle East and few other minor countries, like Monaco. Royalty has virtually no political power throughout the world.

If POTUS was a King or Queen then it would be a position with less power than now.

MK,

Potus can in many cases refuse to do what congress wants, e.g. not hire workers to do it. But he can't do what congress forbids.

Congress/Senate fractured by partisan political divisions.
Hugely powerful military, rife with cultural political inhibitions,
and issues of graduated citizenship. Judicial courts politically
and culturally hogtied. Political leaders increasingly drawn
from prominent oligarchic families. Voting process increasingly
subverted toward maintaining less and less involvement by
citizens in the running of the empire.
The system, and the nation is moving closer to it's final fall.
Every conclusion put forward here can be backed up by association
with similar evens that preceded the break up of other great states
in recorded history.

It's definitely a good point that a U.S. president is limited in scope of power, but if Trump gets in there, I think he's going to have some influence on Congress, and that could mean office changes down the road. ~A slow process, but I do think if Trump wins, he'll have an overall effect that we'll feel eventually.
