If Obama thinks Ebola is a 'national security priority,' why no travel ban? | Fox News

If Obama thinks Ebola is a 'national security priority,' why no travel ban? | Fox News:

"President Obama declared the Ebola outbreak a “national security priority.” That was three weeks ago. Yet, he has failed to treat it as such.
He could ban all travel into the U.S. of any person who has been in the affected West African countries. He has the legal power to do so.

Why hasn’t he?

The fundamental duty of the nation’s chief executive is to protect its citizens. Under Article II of the Constitution, he is duty-bound to respond to threats and to conduct the country’s foreign affairs."
