Just when it looked like Hillary Clinton was poised to win the 2016 election, the FBI has thrown a gamechanger into the mix. On Friday, FBI Director James Comey announced that his agency has discovered new emails related to Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of classified information that they had not previously seen. According to the Associated Press, the newly discovered emails “did not come from her private server”, but instead were found when the FBI started going through electronic devices that belonged to top Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband Anthony Weiner. The FBI has been looking into messages of a sexual nature that Weiner had exchanged with a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina, and that is why they originally seized those electronic devices. According to the Washington Post, the “emails were found on a computer used jointly by both Weiner and his wife, top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, according to a person with knowledge of the inquiry”, and according to some reports there may be “potentially thousands” of emails on the computer that the FBI did not have access to previously. Even though there are less than two weeks to go until election day, this scandal has the potential to possibly force Clinton out of the race, and if that happens could Barack Obama delay or suspend the election until a replacement candidate can be found?

OBAMBA does not have the authority to suspend the election.
Just when it looked like Hillary Clinton was poised to win the 2016 election,
He’s familiar with third world dictatorships and how that would be normal operating procedure over there.
I dont think he wants to see how it would go down here.
A million bikers overriding the white house lawn would be a nice start
Then the shooting will finally commence
I don’t think he has the power to outright override an enumerated Constitutional requirement, legally.
He can’t! Elections are comtrolled by the states.
Maybe Obama can’t, but some crusading Liberal FedJudge surely can.
The Toricelli Precedent. Voters have the right to a “choice”, yadda yadda....
Controlled^ :)
Correct.... if she gets side lined... they’ll have to go with that other clown... what’s his name...Kane? :)
I don’t think that’s gonna happen.
Zactly. Legally, there are four candidates with equal standing. It would be dumb to suspend the election if Johnson was run over by a bus on the day before the election. Same regarding hillary having a meltdown or falling off the stage.
We would still have three candidates that could duke it out. Her party would have to wait ‘till next time.
That’s NOT gonna happen.
She WILL be the candidate on Nov 8.
Trump didn’t attack comey. that’s a BAD sign for hillary.
obama cares about obama. he want to leave and live the great life and be adored.
he is not going out on a limb for a woman he hates
He’d better not try.
Obama dreaming.
He’d better not try.
If we were at war with Russia Obama could do this...that was the backup plan.
I think Obama is sick and tired of DC and—just like that Donna Brazil quote—wants this election over and done.
Hillary is staying on the ballot—everyone is just going to have to deal with it.
She isn’t going to be forced out and Obama doesn’t have the authority to delay the election.
