I'm not sure what is legally allowed, but if he asks for $70 billion for the 2009 fiscal year, does the president who wins in november have the power to over-turn any ruling from the senate?

The reason I ask is that this is not going to help the economy, and I wonder if some candidates believe that it's not a good idea (which in turn could lead to them turning it over)
