No he cannot do that. But if he could, and wanted to, he would no matter how loudly you cry about with a completely uninformed idea of US Constitution.

In these cases, peacekeepers remain members of their respective armed forces, and do not constitute an independent "UN army", as the UN does not have such a force.

Peacekeeping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You can go to the United Nation's website and apply under their career section to be a peacekeeper.
ahh I get it, so they're just an international glee club organization with no influence or power but if they call you to go bash some heads, you gotta go do it AND they want you to wear their uni's??? hmmmm..sounds like somebody is getting the world used to them having their own army

What do you mean? Obviously if the UN requests help from the United States, it's up to the President and Congress to agree.
Ok, so why when the people of america say "stay outta those peoples business", our voices go unheard? is Obama upholding the Constiution at that point? remember it's...WE..THE..PEOPLE...not WE..THE SHEEPLE.

Most of the world hates us for being the modern day Roman Empire. But what does that have to do with the UN?
The UN is the structure for how governments will be run in the future. if not, then why does the UN exist at all? they are not the worlds police nor it's refferee. it calls G20 summits as if to corrall all nations under it's umbrella. have you seen the UN flag?

So your beloved Barry is doing illegal moves in plain sight against America
The u.n isn't a king, prince, or foreign state.

you do reallize the reason you live the way you do is because of that document. not because of Obama grandstanding at a UN Security council?

it's not like he went on conan o'brien. he made a MAJOR move in plain sight. but hey man. keep talkin down on the messenger.

and p.s -. my days of "convincing people" stopped when Obama took office. now all I do is commentate on what is happening and pointing out things that I told people was coming years ago.

You can keep thinking his antics are just farse and being prententious but the man is on a course to shut down this country economically and military
A. I'm not an Obama fan. He was not my first choice, and there are many things that I'm unhappy about.

B. You will not find another poster on this board who is more about honoring the Constitution of the United States.

C. Your attack on me does not make your argument. Whether you intended to convince anyone or not, you started a thread with the expectation of a discussion about the President and the United Nations. You are the one asserting wrong-doing. Please stay on-topic and argue your position.

And, so what?

The United Nations votes against the United States on some thing, and what happens?

You realize that Congress has a little review process called ratification, right?

The UN is not foreign either. Last time I checked it was still based in New York City, NY, which is part of the US.
