Why do people think President Ron Paul does not have the authority to end the wars?

   Most people who oppose Ron Paul just spout off nonsense. It’s the fact that their words take up space that’s the main point of their argument.

   The president can end a war at any time. He is in direct command of the troops. He merely orders them home and guess what-the war is over. Congress can play games if they want but they are not able to order the troops around or relocate them; they have no executive powers. If you want to call a country with none of our troops or military supplies located within its borders, none of theirs within ours and no war ever officially declared in the first place “at war with us”, maybe you can call it a cold war, I don’t know. War was never even declared in the first place so how can Congress officially end it?

   Civics class my ###. What an idiot.

   The POTUS does not start or stop wars….CONGRESS does.
   Should have not slept through Civics or US History class.

   we haven’t been in a war since the end of WW2. We have been in military conflicts but it is not a war unless congress declares war.

   Once again, stupid n***gger: Ron Paul would be the FIRST to attempt to hang you from a tree if he became president.
