He wouldn't need to ask Congress to add to the national debt and authorize $300bn every year for Iraq for example, because he would be working on getting out of Iraq

Domestically, he will try and get his program through Congress and work with them but most importantly he has the Veto pen, which im sure he would happily use.
politics IS the art of compromise.

you don't even seem to understand how politics and government works.

a veto means nothing. there is such a thing as a veto over ride you know... happens quite often.

you can't be an effective leader if no one is following.
