Let me start off by saying that I have no issue with the question of citizenship being raised on a U.S. census. I think it is reasonable for the government to know who resides within its borders.
That said, if the president can thumb his nose at Congress and the Supreme Court, then what measures remain to check his or her authority from those of a monarch? Seizure of his person and arrest? Impeachment? Something more severe?
Or will he simply override any such actions with an executive order?
Where is the line drawn and how will it be enforced?
I voted for the current occupant of the oval office because I feared that the alternative was less acceptable at the time.
There is no way in good conscience that I can vote for that individual going forward despite the fact that there is nobody in the opposition, nor its platform that I favor. However, it's well beyond the 2A and the RKBA at this juncture. The choice must be greater than simply "either / or".
I have a terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach about the future of our country and democracy.
I'm interested in your thoughts...
