Poll question: What is the President's biggest job?
Mr.bush continues to cay his biggest job is protecting the American People. I thought the president's job (not debating Mr.bush's status here) is to protect the constitution. I thought that is what he has sworn to do. Not to debate what the current executive administration is doing, but am wondering if I have it wrong.

6. Protecting the Constitution protects the people, but not visa versa
necessarily. For Mr.bush, it is protecting himself of course, his own interests, which in the long run DON'T MAKE SENSE because it is bad. sorry for yelling, am yelling at mr.bush

9. if you protect the people you protect the constitution
because the constitution is made to protect the people.

5. That's what I thought also. Going next step, this protects people
but the main job is protecting constitution.

7. None of the other things mean anything...
if the President does not put the Constitution first and foremost.
