Reresident to issue executive orders.
In regard to President Obama's intention to by-pass the Legislative branch of the government and issue executive orders relative to gun control, I have a couple of questions for the Constitutional Lawyers and/or constitutional Scholars on this forum.
As I remember from Government class, if a law is passed and it is of sufficient national interest, an entity can request that the Supreme Court consider it and issue a ruling despite the fact that it did not go through the court system. The Supreme Court may choose to either consider the law or ignore the request.
Is this the same with a presidential executive order? Could the NRA request that the Supreme Court rule on the constitutionality of and the possibility of the apparent Conditional conflict of the separation of powers (President creating law instead of executing it.)?
