    Executive Order 10730: Little Rock Nine: What's Up With the Title?

      Executive Order 10730 - Providing Assistance for the Removal of an Obstruction of Justice Within the State of Arkansas

      Executive Orders issued since 1862 are numbered sequentially. That means this is the 10,730th Executive Order issued by a U.S. president. That's an awful lot of orders issued over the years. We wonder how many of them were for Quarter Pounders with Cheese. (Looking at you, Bill Clinton.)

      The second part of the title is a bit longer, and it's there to explain the steps the president will take to end the law-breaking in Arkansas.

      P.S. You probably know this one better as the Little Rock Nine. We wonder why?
