New Stansberry video ad: Gas/oil boom will expand Obama's power, leading to a third term

Drudge Ad for Stansberry's Investment Advisory ^ | November 9, 2012 | Porter Stansberry

Sorry for the sales pitch (I have nothing to do with Stansberry), but maybe I've saved you the hour needed to watch the video. I thought y'all might enjoy the red meat at the beginning.

[fortheDeclaration]

There is a constitutional amendment limiting presidential terms to two.

[thecodont]

There is a constitutional amendment limiting presidential terms to two.

He ignored the Article II natural-born citizen requirement, so why should he let a silly little amendment stop him?

[AZLiberty]

I know. The Constitution didn’t hold FDR back. Threatening the Supreme Court got him where he wanted to go. National popularity made it possible, which is Stansberry’s point.

[Salgak]

Just wait.

Summer, 2014. Michelle Obama embarks on a “listening tour”.

Be Afraid. Be VERY Afraid. . .

[Aria]

I hate those Stansberry ads. I don’t think they know anything special except how to scare lots of people.

Wait a minute.. Isn’t this the SAME group that predicted the stock market would crash and massive fiscal Armageddon by the end of 2012?

[LukeL]

If we do have an economic boom that would be wonderful. I am not one to have sour grapes, however there is more to a country than a good economy, you need a strong foreign and domestic policy, along with a moral social agenda.

As for the term limits, there is no way an ammendment could be ratified in less than 4 years as I can think of at least 13 states that would be opposed to it.

Maybe their Mayan office.

[Terry Mross]

I’m almost 62. Let the payments come to me while I fade away. The next generation of my family would love to see obama get 4 or 5 terms. And they’d like to seal the deal today. Obviously they don’t give a damn so why should I? If obama gets 4 terms and the economy booms as he’s turning it social, good for the next generation. They can pay the fiddler. I’ll be dead.

[AZLiberty]

We haven’t seen the end of 2012 yet.

[Optimus Prime]

Are you implying that FDR got around term limits? Because presidential term limits didn’t exist then. They were put in because FDR had run four times.

[AZLiberty]

No such implication. He ignored the then existing Constitution to push through national make-work programs and social security.

[Freedom of Speech Wins]

Per Salon.com this is the group that accidentally sent an email to a list of Newt Gingrich supporters they had obtained saying that Obama would win a second term and the only question was whether he would win a third.

[Splorndle]

The Constitution did not limit Presidential terms until it was amended in response to FDR.

[fortheDeclaration]

That dealt with interpretation of the Constitution, and it was because he had some New Deal legislation knocked down that he threatened the Supreme Court, a threat that cost him to take a beating in the congressional elections.

We have four more legal years of Obama, no reason to speculate on anything after that.

[fortheDeclaration]

He might have gotten away with that, he can’t with this.

[Sherman Logan]

Whether you are willing to admit it or not, there are major differences of legitimate opinion as to the meaning of the natural-born citizen requirement.

There is no such ambiguity about a two term limit.

[mosesdapoet]

This ad could be considered satirical comment. Obama’s policies as far as “fossil fuels” go has been quite the opposite of this sales pitch and got very meek attention as part of Romney’s campaign. In fact Obama just closed off a bunch of acreage to fracking exploration.

[Quickgun]

A civil war will ensue if he ain’t out in 4. I might start it myself.
