I don't think the president has much influence on such a situation, you should look at Keith Alexander, not Obama/Bush/whoever.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Obama is kind of the CEO of the government, isn't he? So he's the person that should be held accountable for stuff going wrong (or right) in his government.
Apparently the president can direct government workers to ignore federal law, so I'm not buying your claim.
