The executive branch has assassinated US citizen Anwar Aulaqi, without giving him a fair trial or even arresting him. This power was granted to the president just recently.
Still voting for Obama?

it's probably politically and economically cheaper to kill Aulaqi than arrest him and put him through a trial and jail him.
Yea, sure, people will bitch about it,
but things will be back to normal after some time.
I'm sure a there a few cases that people have protested about something the government has done illegally, but have died down a couple weeks or months.
