It's not a "law." It's a constitutional amendment (the 22nd Amendment).

Even if they wanted to do this, I find it hard to believe that they'd be willing to spend the time and effort to get the amendment changed. Heck -- even a lot of Democrats with political aspirations would be dead-set against this.

the machines will spit out whatever vote is needed to pass it, like the 141% turnout in St. Lucie County Florida

They aren’t being chllenged now, the next election will have 10x worse fraud

I would think even the Demoncrats would be against this due to their own egotistical aspirations.

At the same time, it's also a little hard to believe that a guy two years out of the Illinois state legislature was elected president and is: nationalizing industries like auto manufacturing, insurance and banking; stripping us of our nuclear defenses; imposing a household budget-busting national `health care' regime, replete with swarms of bureaucrats ready to eat out our substance; bankrupting our treasury with profligate spending, creating more debt in the last six years than created since this nation was birthed; blocking attempts to exploit our natural resources; and, consorting with our enemies, insulting our allies and debasing the executive branch of government by actually kowtowing to foreign heads of state. That's all I can think of off the top of my head. I'm sure there's more I can't think of right now. Seeking tyrannical power by making himself `president for life'? What would possibly make anyone think he might try that, other than the fact that he's acting like one now? The 1st amendment: Use it or lose it, or plan on using the 2nd.

Hehe, naive you are tonight, eh?

If Obama got the Congressional ‘rats together, and told them “I want this”, most of them would line up like ducks in a row to comply.

I don’t believe they could prevail, but watch ‘em try...
