In an interview with 60 Minutes, President-elect Obama pledged to exert his influence to change the rules of NCAA college football playoffs. Regardless of the reasons, justifications, or potential arguments as to why NCAA rules ought to be changed, the President of the United States has absolutely no right or authority to influence the process.
Here's the 60 Minutes interview: http://www.thefreedomfactory.us/abuse-of-power-obama-wants-to-change-ncaa-playoffs/
Just mentioning that he plans to use the influence of his new public office to change NCAA rules demonstrates that Obama cares little for limitations on federal power. This is unacceptable and all instances of misuse of power, no matter how minor, need to be checked.
The President's real job is to make treaties with foreign governments, appoint federal officers, act as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, and enforce national laws that are spelled out in the Constitution and written by Congress. That's it!
It is important to keep all government decisions in perspective. Obama should not be expanding government's power for reasons that have nothing to do with governing our country. This NCAA example seems small, but in the larger scheme has far bigger implications. - 16463
