  Ah, I see. So by this it seems you mean that the President can disregard the Constitution if, in his viewpoint, that would: "Benefit the United States the most."

  It is precisely this kind of interpretation that the Founding Fathers feared, which is why they set up a system of shared power among the branches to keep any from exceeding their authority.
