Obama: I could have won a third term
Fox News ^

Posted on 12/26/2016 3:48:33 PM PST by Stopthethreat

President Barack Obama still believes in the message of “hope and change” he campaigned on in 2008 — so much so that he believes it could have delivered him a third term over Donald Trump had the Constitution allowed him to run again.

He probably could have. The younger people I work with hate Trump and don’t like Hillary either. They truly believe Obama can make everything better for them and were often saying,”If only Obama could run again...”.

It’s not funny at all. The hero worship of him makes my stomach turn.

His lips were moving so we KNOW he was lying....again.
This crap-stain POS would be wise to just STFU and hope there isn’t a Special Prosecutor appointed to go after his treasonous azz.

Hillary lost because she was following suite with Obama’s platform of bad ideas. She was in favor of ousting Assad. She was a stauch supporter of Abortion, including late term. She was following Obama’s lead in homosexual issues. She was taking Obama’s lead in crushing the coal industry.

There are many more issues that she hacked on during the campaign that I heard people complaining about. I am thinking Obama would have lost by more than she did if he ran again against Trump. But let him make up his own story since he’s leaving anyway. Just glad to see him go. 24 more days!

Hillary had so much against her from the get go. Not to mention she ran a horrible campaign, disingenuous, smug. Her health scares, lack of interaction with her own propagandist..MSM. She came in to the campaign with more baggage than any candidate I can remember, even baggage from years gone by.

Obama would have done better, I'm convinced of it. Scary scary thought.

“FDR would have kept the two term tradition if it wasn’t for World War II.”
I am not sure how much weight I would put on this declaration. We weren’t in WW II in November 1940. It was over 13 months until we entered the war. We could have won the war without FDR. He wasn’t indispensable.”

The 22nd amendment came into being after FDR died...because he was stacking the USSC and congress did not want another President to have that much power over appointing judges so congress mpassed the two term limit on March 21, 1947.

“Pray for America that, indeed, he’ll find something else to do far away from politics.”

I pray that he sets up his house on a golf course and plays golf 24/7. However, I agree with Rush Limbaugh, bum-bum isn’t going anywhere and will be sticking his nose into everything that he can, especially when PRESIDENT TRUMP starts his own “Executive Orders”.
