No, this is an internet myth. The president has used Executive Privilege once since he took office, and that instance had nothing to do with amending any laws. The president's two immediate predecessors used Executive Privilege far more frequently: President Bush invoked the power six times and President Clinton used it 14 times.

What article of the us constitution details the duties of the president?
Article Two deals with the executive branch, which includes the president. Article One deals with the legislative (ie Congress), and Three deals with the judicial. The remaining four articles deal with more mundane stuff like how treaties work, how to amend the constitution, and so on.
What two roles does the executive branch play regarding the laws congressv passes?
The Congress passes a bill, not a law. The bill goes to the President. If the President signs the bill, it becomes a law. If he refuses to sign the bill, it is called a veto and the bill is not made law and is sent back.
Is the president allowed to prepare a bill?
The President of the US is also the leader of his own political party (at the present time, Barack Obama is the leader of the Democratic Party) and therefore, if the President wants legislation to be introduced in Congress, he can ask the members of his party who are in Congress to do so. Nothing would prevent him from writing the bill himself, if he so desired. It is then still up to Congress to pass it, amend it, or reject it.

Who becomes president of US if president elect dies before Jan 20?
The Vice President elect. Albeit, placing Obama's and Biden's faces in the background implies Obama had become President and that Biden has been capable of becoming President. Obama has never, nor could he ever, become U. S. President because the 20th Amendment also states that, even if one had successfully participated in an election event, one would still not become President if "the President elect shall have failed to qualify." For national security (our security), all the reasons why Obama would not qualify did not even need to come into play, as Obama never attempted to complete the required qualification process. (An extrapolation would of course be that Obama knew that he could not. That congress has been letting our Constitution fall is another matter.) Because premeditated usurpation clearly makes Obama enemy of the States (Art. 4, Sec. 4), as usurpation voids that ability of the United States to guarantee a Republican form of government to any of the States (one reason: the Office of President is a key component of our representative democracy), anyone aiding and abetting such usurpation commits treason (Art. 3, Sec. 3). As Biden had previously taken an oath to support and defend our Constitution and has supported Obama's illegitimacy and usurpation, Biden was therefore banned from any Office unless 2/3rds of (a legitimate) congress (per each of both Houses) had specifically voted to make an exception in this specific case (Amend. 14, Sec. 3).
Why did delegates gather in 1787 for the constitutional convention?
To amend the Articles of Confederation.
What checks and balances does the president have on the courts?
The president has several checks on the courts, primarily through the power to appoint federal judges, including Supreme Court justices, with the advice and consent of the Senate. This allows the president to influence the judiciary's composition and ideological leanings. Additionally, the president can also propose legislation to amend or clarify laws interpreted by the courts, as well as the authority to issue executive orders that may affect judicial rulings. However, these checks are limited by the judiciary's power of judicial review and the necessity for congressional approval in certain cases.
What requires the constitution the state appove of an amendment?
If you're asking because of gun control talk, I'll tell you this much:If they try to "amend" the second amendment, they will not succeed in taking our right to keep and bear arms. Hence RIGHT, not EXPENDABLE PRIVILEGE. We will not surrender our firearms so do not be concerned about what it takes to amend the Constitution. We will not allow a perfect document such as itself to be amended to take our rights.
