    Obama should "Declare a National Emergency"
    I think the Global War on Terror achieves the same thing. All the President needs to do is remind people that the world is a dangerous place, and Americans will accept any number of extra-constitutional actions.

    We are already in a national emergency that will never end.

    By the way, I meant that literally

    The U.S. has literally been under a constant State of Emergency since 9/14/2001. Martial Law is already authorized and legal at any time. The Federal Government may seize private property, restrict travel, control communications, etc.

    Bush's proclamation:
    Renewed every year including last month:

    Senate Report 93-549, written in 1973, sums up what the SOE proclamation means in layman's terms. This is from the forward.
    These proclamations give force to 470 provisions of Federal law. . . . taken together, [they] confer enough authority to rule the country without reference to normal constitutional processes. Under the powers delegated by these statutes, the President may: seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize commodities; assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize and control all transportation and communications; regulate the operation of private enterprise; restrict travel; and, in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all American citizens.

    The Washington Times put it pretty bluntly too.
    Wartime presidential powers supersede liberties -- The Washington Times
    Simply by proclaiming a national emergency on Friday, President Bush activated some 500 dormant legal provisions, including those allowing him to impose censorship and martial law.

    Obama should “declare a national emergency” and take “extra-constitutional” action “administratively” — without the approval of Congress
