Executive Orders (EO)s are decrees that are issued by the
President of the United States and which carry the force of law when
activated by a president. All EOs are printed in the U.S. Federal
Register. The following are a few examples of some EOs and their purposes
that relate to a
State of national emergency.

"President
William Jefferson Clinton wrote one EO that can cover all of these. He
wrote
Executive Order 12919 on June 3, 1994, which was released on June 6,
1994.
This EO will be the only thing he needs to enact in order to become a
fully empowered dictator. It covers all of the EO's mentioned previously.
The only thing this EO doesn't do is define WHAT the "national emergency"
would have to be in order for this EO to be signed. Please keep that in
mind. Anything can be declared a "national
emergency" to facilitate EO 12919 being enacted."
