That said, even if he were to draft a "suggestion," it would still require the sponsorship of Harry, or Nancy, or Barney, or whoever he could get to sponsor the bill. That sponsorship would also put ownership of that bill in the hands of that representative. It would be the "Pelosi" Bill or the "Reid" Bill, not the "Obama" Bill, and that's my point.

It's not at all uncommon for a President to provide "prewritten" legislation to Congress for introduction... If President Obama felt strongly about specific policy, he could very easily have it drafted, exactly the way he wanted it, and send it to Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi, or any of his supporters in Congress to be introduced...
