Default Re: Objectivity During Crisis

[ QUOTE ]
It is illogical to think that the President should dictate or unilaterally act in an issue involving a State. The President has more latitude in Afghanistan than he does in Louisiana.

The federal government is deeply involved in issues regarding states, specifically including disaster response and relief, and the president has authority over much of that federal government. So I'm not sure I understand where you are coming from here.

How does the president "answer" to the governors?
