Gingrich's plan for America

OK.
I came upon Gingrich's "Plan for America" several weeks ago, and have been
surprised that Issue # 9 has not received attention in the media, or by Dwellars.

It is extreme and frightening, but fits with some Conservatives' view of the "Universal President".
Was it Nixon or Cheney or who(?) that said something like: "If the President says it's lawful, it is legal."
So they would believe the corollary.

But Gingrich certainly is being explicit.
I don't think he published this just for the enjoyment of the far right.
I suspect that if elected, he could/would claim it as a "mandate".
