Quoting Article I of the Constitution, the Utah v. Evans court said, "The final part of the sentence says that the “actual Enumeration” shall take place “in such Manner as” Congress itself “shall by Law direct,” thereby suggesting the breadth of congressional methodological authority, rather than its limitation."  The text of the constitution and the courts interpretation of that text both state clearly that the census is the responsibility of Congress.  But President Obama is having the White House run the 2010 census.  This is an unconstitutional, dangerous violation of [[Separation of Powers]].
