bedsitter23I posted some early thoughts on the 2016 Iowa Caucus. the best articles I have read to date on both parties was what I drew from heavily.Of course, it doesn't matter because we knew all along that Barry Hussein was going to circumvent the law and run fro a third term.They already got the legislation drafted up to repeal the 22nd Amendment.
You probably already the Fox News article which of course is headlined King Obama?
Indeed, Congressman Jose Serrano has introduced legislation to end Presidential term limits. Our facebook newsfeed has already jumped on this, but once again, Snopes probably captures it best of all.
Yes, there's a proposal to end the 22nd Amendment, but there always is. Republicans and Democrats have both pushed bills no matter who is in the White House. Steny Hoyer has introduced the bill for years when Clinton and Dubya were in power. Even going back to Reagan and Nixon, there as always been someone arguing for it, but it dies in committee, never coming close to a vote, nevermind going to the next level of an Amendment- going to state votes.
Still, Obama's third term conspiracy rumors go further. You would think that Obama being power hungry and self-obsessed would be reason enough. But Obama theories have become a cottage industry, and Porter Stansbury wants to take it to the next level.
Stansberry's website Obamathirdterm.com spells it out, but here is what you need to know. Stansberry thinks that Obama will take advantage of a nearing prosperity that will be driven by natural gas reserves and America- wealthy, healthy and wise will elect Obama to a 3rd term.
Which means that Stansberry thinks the guy will make us all rich and powerful. I am not sure why that's such a bad thing. What does he want from a president? Stansberry thinks if not Barack, then Michelle will be elected on these "good times" (which is legal, you know).
If you have never heard of Stansberry, he's been fined millions of dollars by the SEC for fraud. He recently was touting a similar 'quick prosperity' scheme by touting a penny stock company as being days away from curing AIDS.
In any case, I do laugh at my friends on Facebook who hate Obama and think that if they use enough capital letters and punctuation marks and post enough memes that they will change the election. They are terrified of the repeal of the 22nd Amendment, and there's a meme dare out there where you post you wish Obama could run again (or something similar in horribleness like "Where can I buy used sex toys'.)
Which I find silly. Some Rand Paul fanatic who is terrified of 'Obama 2016'. The only scenario I see with Rand Paul in the White House involves him running against Obama 35 months from now.
Elections aren't decided by those Facebook screamers or those arguing logic like myself, but by the middle - and Obama has lost the middle. I don't think Obama would win a third term. He certainly feels like a weaker candidate than Hillary- a member of the most beloved political family of the last 25 years.
Even with the charisma, can you argue Obama is a better candidate than a blank-slate candidate who has all the good stuff (gay marriage, immigration policy) and none of the baggage (that healthcare.gov website).
In any case, if I was a GOPer I think i would take my chances against Barry. If you can't beat him a third time with his approval around 38%, you've got bigger problems.
Of course, repealing the 22nd Amendment would unleash the possibility of The Return of Bubba (and Zombie Reagan, of course) and after 10years of Middle Class tears, that would be a shoo-in.
