To do whatever he wants to do...what? You mean like stopping the obvious murder of an innocent handicapped American citizen who was being deprived of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? You mean he didn't have the right to defend THAT most basic of Constitutional rights? Spare me. He had the right. He had the DUTY!

Of course you can't provide the specific placement of that power under Article II Section 2 where this power is found. Of course you can't but don't let that bother you. Statements, words practically in stone, and simple facts don't matter apparently. I would refer this statement to you

The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.

If you would bother to read where that came from (any conservative should know the source)and note the author, you would see facts and limitations of power do matter.
