I'd say the president, regardless who's currently in the WH, always has had this kind of power. While various laws, prohibitions (it started with Ford) and proclamations may state otherwise, he's got the wherewithal to go thumbs-down on just about anyone, seems to me.

Who's going to tell him, "No, Mr. President. That's considered assassination and you can't do that."?

Some things just don't need to be written down.

Some things are better left unsaid. Obama should have never publicly acknowledged that this dude was on his hit list.

While that may be true, I would certainly hope to hell that if some some reason I was on his shit list, there would be at least a few raising all kinds of cain!
