One question congressional and presidential candidates should be asked is how we should go about restoring the rule of law to our federal government. Not even during the world wars of the last century was the executive branch as brazen in assuming sweeping and unlegislated powers, changing laws without the consent of the legislative branch and ignoring laws it didn’t like.
Lawsuits are certainly one possible avenue to take, but a slow one–which is what the White House is counting on.

It will also find ways to circumvent such a decision or just ignore it altogether.

If another party takes over, stops his cover ups—Obama may well be sent to prison! He must keep control! He can not step down! His only choice is to appoint a person—his clone—to take over and keep the cover ups going. A new president who can pardon him. Biden? Clinton (she might toss him under the bus) some other Soros pick?
There are but a handful of "conservatives" in the Senate right now. We will be lucky to add one or two to that number in November.
