in his dreams ?
Zero said he wanted to be very specific (and he spoke slowly!) and still Carney said we misunderstood him. How stupid does the zero administration think the American people are?
Are we certain that the individual now claiming to be Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. is the same individual who attended Harvard Law School?
It was pointed out to me yesterday, Obama was a lecturer, not a teacher/professor.
Abner Mikva taught Con Law while Obama was a fellow at U of Chicago Law School. Obama taught an elective course, Race and the Law.
Obama is an ultra-partisan boob.
He was given a lecturer position on Con Law at University of Chicago by his cronies.
He is not a published Con Law professor.
The only published documents available for Obama are his ghost-written books.
Barry never did anything that’s documented. This guy, for all intents and purposes is a community organizer of half witted minorities in Chicago! No offense to half witted minorities, but just D@mn!
Folks, this guy wouldn’t have made it anywhere except for his skin color!
Flame away!
On second thought, screw the flames!
Obama is not found of the Constition and particularly the Bill of Rights and any powers reserved for the people or the states.
He views our rights as “negative rights” which tells the government precisely what it cannot do.
He wants a set of “positive rights” declared which would tell us all the neat things the Federal government can and should od for the rest of us “masses.”
Obama is a walking., talking marxist ideolog at heart...a command economy and society waiting to happen...and all his talk about the Constitution is tainted and painted with that hue.

There’s been great confusion on that question. Actually, it was Soviet Constitutional Law Comrade Obama taught, not a course about the U.S. Constitution.
Obama is not now, and never was a ‘law professor’. There is no documented proof that he ever graduated from anything even high school, much less that he was ever a professor.
He is a fraud and a liar. The Leftists at Harvard had him hanging around as a token. And I guess it has been said that he guest lectured a couple of times. As always with everything about Obama, this is another undocumented and unproven claim.
I’m surprised they resurrected this ‘law professor’ nonsense. It has be shown to be a completely undocumented claim. And frankly, I’m tired of hearing it. It is insulting to all of us.
Why didn’t they just make him an astronaut, or a race car driver? He never did that either. What’s the difference.
I took mostly engineering, science, math and economics in College. Most of these are no-nonsense knowledge application stuff.
But I did have some electives too. I had to take management classes and a speech class. I have always been an articulate and confident speaker in public. I figured it would be a fun class for me, provide some practice and earn a pretty easy A. That is until I received my grade on the first speech. This was my introduction to the liberal arts side of things and professors that were ‘out of their’ minds on real world application of a collegiate education.
When it came time to give our first 5 minute speech to the class I was the third to go. I nailed it. The young woman that followed me was horribly nervous. She cried in front of class and couldn't even read from her notes. She didn't finish the 5 minute speech. Another guy read verbatim his entire speech from his notes. I recall saying a prayer of thanks to the Lord for some of the many talents he bestowed on me and prayed to help some others get through this class. It was painful until I learned of my grade and that of others. I received a D! The girl that couldn't finish received an A and the guy that read his entire speech received a B.
I had a meeting with the “tenured professor” to get some help on what the problem was as there was no explanation on my graded research and note cards (that I did not need to use but was required to turn in). She stated that she graded on the potential of the student and these first few grades didn't mean much. “You shouldn't be discussing grades between yourselves anyway.”
My point? Professors are WAY overrated with regards to their supposed “expertise”. I don't trust the expertise of academia for real world application any more than I trust the assembly instructions for a yo-yo made in China.
I'm not surprised that Obama doesn't really understand the Constitution or the founding documents and values of this nation.
One thing about these FRthreads, one sees a bunch of future Winstons needing a “correction” “How many fingers, Winston?”
Did Obama ever do much of ANYTHING? Whatever he pontificated about the Constitution while lecturing impressionable undergrads, had little to do with the virtues of the Constitution, but concentrated almost exclusively on the FLAWS.
Nuances and penumbrations to be found in various rulings were highly magnified, while the clear language of both the Constitution and the various Amendments was glossed over, or ignored entirely.
There are different ways to “teach” the Constitution. Obama was only looking for loopholes and internal contradictions, or what he hoped were contradictions.
Obama did NOT teach “ConLaw”.
He lectured on community activism during presentations labeled “ConLaw”.
If there were evidence to the contrary, we’d have seen it by now.
According to an article just posted on Drudge, Obama did teach Constitutional Law - semester 3, on the 14th Amendment. The article Drudge points to was written by a person who claims to have taken the course. His response to Obama’s slam at the Supreme Court was that Obama wasn’t against a group of unelected officials overturning laws in the case of Roe V. Wade and other cases he taught.
Gee Willikers! Do ya think? Did you just crawl out from under a rock?????????
Obama did not teach constitutional law. What Obama taught was constitutional activism. Obama honed his constitutional skills to discover loopholes around the Constitution's vision for America.
Senator Obama informed us that he felt the Constitution was a flawed document.
President Obama informed us that he will discover ways to bypass Congress.
Now President Obama is looking for loopholes to bypass the Supreme Court.
"On every question of construction [of the Constitution], let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invent against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed." - Thomas Jefferson
