And there was NOTHING President Obama could do to intervene.
The Troy Davis case was a STATE case.
President's do not have jurisdiction in state death penalty cases.
p.s. People that want to eliminate the death penalty need to work at the 'state level' to get the 'state law' changed.
There is no reason to expend energy bashing President Obama, since he has no control over state legislation and state judiciaries.
