These authorities can be used to ensure positive progress on many of the key issues facing the country through:<\/p>\n<p>    * Executive orders<br \/>\n    * Rulemaking<br \/>\n    * Agency management<br \/>\n    * Convening and creating public-private partnerships<br \/>\n    * Commanding the armed forces<br \/>\n    * Diplomacy<\/p>\n<p>The ability of President Obama to accomplish important change through these powers should not be underestimated. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I have no idea why they call these organizations &#8220;think tanks&#8221; since apparently there&#8217;s no thinking going on there. It&#8217;d probably more accurate to call this one a &#8220;wishful thinking tank&#8221;. It&#8217;s highly unlikely that military leaders would turn their charges on the American people over policy decisions like healthcare, and clean energy. Just because VoteVets battles in the political arena for these issues, that doesn&#8217;t mean the rest of the military will follow their example.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rurik sent me a link to Gateway Pundit which linked to The Blaze which in turn &hellip; <a title=\"Center for American Progress: Use the troops to make policy\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=21267\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Center for American Progress: Use the troops to make policy<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,47],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21267","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama","category-liberals-suck"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21267","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=21267"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21267\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=21267"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=21267"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=21267"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
