..."At the very least, if he can figure out a way to bring this to the floor, it’ll be fun to see how Democrats whose seats are up next year will vote on it. Word on the Hill is that Reid might not even force a vote on the assault-weapons ban lest it prove too difficult for red-state Dems’ reelection campaigns."...

Obama didn't issue any executive orders.

Then, what was this all about?

(Announcement on The White House Blog)

Look at the text under the picture to find this:

"President Barack Obama, with Vice President Joe Biden, signs executive orders initiating 23 separate executive actions, after delivering remarks to unveil new gun control proposals as part of the Administration’s response to the Newtown, Conn., shootings, and other tragedies, in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, Jan. 16, 2013."

If Rand can keep from looking to radical to the mainstream, and follows the politics of Ron, then I would love to see him as future candidate for higher office.

However, I don't think doing anything in this regard will help him. And based on what was done in those executive actions, it does not seem like much is warranted.

Wiki defines it like this:
A presidential memorandum is a type of presidential order issued by the President of the United States to the executive branch of the United States government. Presidential memoranda do not have an established process for issuance or publication. Presidential memoranda are generally considered less prestigious than executive orders.
