Because Congress is a subordinate branch of government as far as foreign policy goes and the only thing constitution gives them any sway over foreign policy is treaties?


There is that....... And the enormous time it takes Congress to do ANY frickING THING. Also the executive needs to have the power to make concessions. It would be impossible for the executive branch (State Department) to negotiate with foreign powers for the USA if they do not have the power to give the other side what they want.

This is a moronic suggestion and I would have thought even Lou Pai would recognize that. I guess not.

Even members of congress are subject to the logan act under specific circumstances. Call me when Congress can enforce foreign policy directives of their own.


Does nobody see how this would hamstring the State Department and put all that power in the hands of Congress........ CONGRESS!!!!
