LOL. When has a "federal law" ever been written with an executive order?
Where is it written that a President can have a personal "kill list", and use it on American Citizens?
Lots of questions, hey?

Ron Paul wouldn't do it!
Why use him as your example?
I would support Ron Paul. Hell Yes.

He said "what if" Ron Paul was the President.
Its not my fault he and you doesn't "know" Ron Paul's stance on the subject.
I dont want any President to use them. They dont use. They abuse.

You show me a President, I'll show a trail of broken campaign promises.
This includes the present POTUS, and Ron Paul is no different.

If faced with this Congress, Paul would definitely throw around some executive
muscle. He'd be seen as weak and ineffective if he didn't.
Editor’s correction: This is a list of executive orders in force that outline Emergency Powers. Some of these were signed by prior US Presidents going back all the way to JFK. Obama specifically has signed executive orders starting with the number EO-13489 and forward. But these all reference powers Obama could use to limit your freedoms.
There have been over 900 Executive orders put forth from Obama, and he is not even through his first term yet.

You are very good at avoiding questions. I'll answer yours though -- I believe you are referring to the "kill or capture" list. This would be the same as for any wanted criminal. If a guy just robbed a bank, and the police go after him to arrest him -- if he pulls a gun or tries to attack them, what do you think the police will do? It's called "kill or capture". There have been plenty of terrorist suspects that they have caught peacefully, who are in Guantanamo right now. They've also killed quite a few who fought back.

Some have certainly questioned Ron Paul's integrity. There are claims that he is a racist. There are claims that he has ties to the KKK.

Wrong.
Ron Paul wasn't the man you wanted to make an "example" of.
His integrity has never been a question.
Every other R and D ? Then you could make that distinction.
If Dr. Paul was elected, then you would know this Country is absolutely sick of the Status Quo. Im sure many across the isle would actually know that their Jobs are in jeopardy if Ron Paul was elected. Think about it.
You might get the change we need.
The joke is on you. All I seem to be seeing here in defense of Obama, including from yourself, is rhetoric. This has to tell you something.

The fact is, executive orders cannot pass bills or acts or any federal laws. If it were that simple, Obama (or any other president) would have just written an executive order to pass any law he/they wanted, like the healthcare one, for example.

Yes, Obama is a dictator, he and his cabal of evil henchmen are out to make sure that everyone gay marries an illegal immigrant and he will raise taxes for EVERYONE just to be mean.
What a joke.
