that's kinda my point, the office has a ton of power but if the dude isn't inclined to use it he can always hide behind "oh I'm powerless in the face of the mean legislaative branch" the way he's been doing since 2009. Obama could have used a signing statement or brought a case to court on some checks and balances poo poo if he actually cared

or even just said "as commander in chief of the armed forces I'm ordering the soldiers at Guantanamo Bay to moce them, do something about it"
