Logic of vetoes

Although each case is unique and involves a plethora of influences, one general rule can be acknowledged; Presidents use their prerogative to veto legislation when such legislation does not represent their viewpoint or agenda. Some general reasons that have been used to veto laws are it is a bad law, it is unconstitutional, or it clashes with the President's political ideology.

Veto threat

Occasionally, a President either publicly or privately threatens Congress with a veto to influence the content or passage of legislation. There is no record of what officially constitutes a "veto threat," or how many have been made over the years, but it has become a staple of Presidential politics and a sometimes effective way of shaping policy.
