Game On! 

   Who is winning the executive-order race? While we await the Final Four basketball games and the start of Major League Baseball, here are the standings in another contest that may interest you.

   Franklin D. Roosevelt leads the pack with 310 EOs per year - 12 years in office. In second place is his older relative, Teddy Roosevelt, 270 per year.

   Far behind are Donald Trump, 55, and Barack Obama, 34 per year. 

   Watch out for a sleeper - Joe Biden has issued more than 50 executive orders in just over two months! Is he shooting for third place? He could take second place.   

   Of course, time and change erases a policy like the sun melts snow. Only the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) survives like a rock among Obama's 276 orders. FDR's internment of Japanese Americans (which Congress backed) is not to his credit. 

   Biden has struck down about half of Trump's EOs. These fickle days, any president could see his or her legacy vanish in the fog of time.   

   The Congressional branch of government has been dead for some years. To get reelected to Congress or the Senate, one just lets the president take the heat. 

   Democrats have relied on the judicial branch to confirm their wishes. President Trump tilted the courts somewhat to the right, so until Dems can recover, executive orders will have to do. 

   Know your country. Follow the executive orders, as well as the money.
