Sinopsis

Imperial. Unilateral. Over-reaching. These are just a few of the terms that have been used to describe President Obama's recent actions on immigration. Is this a Constitutional crisis, typical partisan squabbling, or something else entirely? Chicago Harris Professor William Howell, expert on the US presidency and separation of powers, helps navigate this prickly terrain. Hear his take on the immigration debate, how presidents always expand their authority, and why that might not be a bad thing.
