i have a 2005 lincoln ls i wanted to know why when i turn the a/c on the car starts to stall and feel like it wants to shut off. also when i turn the a/c on the car feels like it doesnt have much power it hesitates upon acelleration. i have had the fuel filter changed. when the a/c is not on the car drives just fine

When you turn on the a/c, the pump creates an extra load on your engine it has to deal with.

Usually it's no problem. But if your ignition system/fuel system isn't in proper tune, it won't be able to handle the extra load.

First do a tune up if you haven't already done so. Also, check the fuel pump. (pressure test)
