The President [wether Republican or Democrat] does not introduce bills....he/she/it only signs bill into law that have been voted on and passed by each of the two houses.

Seems to me like a decent meal is more importent than Lady Birds wild flowers were.

Joe, your link is funnier than all the posts on this thread but it is so obvious that it is 100% right and too many people are afraid to do what it takes. Oh well, I really get a kick out of telling my wife to look at that fat one over there and that one over there and so on. She gets mad at me and I just get sicker looking at our people when in a crowd.

Silly statements like "the Obamas 'care' " Really bring to question credibility alright.

Is paranoia on your menu?

Presidents can certainly heavily influence bills and what Congress works on.
Look how the Obamacare bill was influenced.

Are you proposing that Michelle take on abolishing smoking also? I'm good with that.

Okay, I'll play. Where does the money lead us? To the school lunch lady?

I agree with you that we need to provide federal funding for a good physical education program at all public schools.
