The President should and must have power to make certain decision without Congressional approval, just as Congress has the right to do things without the President's approval. If Congress had to approve everything a President did, Congress would have full authority over both the legislative and executive power of governmant, which would eliminate the concept of checks and balances of the three branches of government that the Constitution sets up.
The presidential powers of Commander-in-Chief are not without limit. The President can not declare war, must get approval for money spent on war or the military and Congress can stop a war at any-time and also impeach the President if he/she goes beyond their allowed powers. Congress can also stop a war at any time and even if the President invokes the war measures acts they can override him with a two-thirds majority of both houses.
