Within The Constitution of the United States, the oath of office for the President states: <br> "Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:--"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."<br> <br> The Preamble to the Constitution of the United States states: <br> "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."<br> <br> Now to say that the President (or any other government employee who has taken the oath) can't "insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare" because of the 4th ammendment (or any other part of the Constitution) would be like forcing the police to stop at all the red lights and stop signs while they were in persuit of a fleeing (suspected) criminal, wouldn't it?
