Don't allow Obama a fourth term!

February 27, 1951, after considerable debate, the 22nd constitutional amendment limiting the term of the United States president to two four-year terms was ratified by the necessary three-fourths of the states..

The motivation was largely to avoid our republic evolving into anything resembling a word frequently bandied about today—dictatorship.

The measure was being considered by state legislatures between 1947 and 1951, close to the era of Hitler and Mussolini. Stalin was still alive. The last long-serving president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt had recently been elected to a fourth term only to die a few months in. It was decided four-year presidencies were to be no more.

Our 44th president, Barack H. Obama, has found his way around this.

That’s ONE thing we can thank FDR for, exposing the rat party for the unholy abomination it truly is.

“It was decided four-year presidencies were to be no more.”

Well, that’s some new news. Are presidencies now two years? Or six years?

“Barack does have a gift for public speaking that Ms. Harris sorely lacks. That will be something for the media to gush over while continuing to avoid asking her substantive questions or to obfuscate embarrassing queries about Ms. Harris’ husband, so-called “Second Gentleman” Doug Emhoff, who appears not always to have been such a gentleman.”

SNORT!!!!

When I lived in DC, I used to ride my bike through that neighborhood. The homes are huge, and some of the homes are mansion’esque huge. Easily 8,000 square feet or more. Lots of embassies in there. Very hilly. I never saw anyone though. No one. No one in their yard, parking their car, going to the mail box. I’d pass someone jogging, or a car cutting through between Mass Ave to Conn Ave. The Islamic center sits on the corner at Mass Ave. But the neighborhood looked desolate.

According to Barry Zero and the other acolytes of evil; America is so bad it has to fundamentally be changed. I cannot fathom the stupidity of the people that support this garbage.

Exactly. I stopped reading right there. Life is too short to have to mentally translate poorly written/edited verbiage.

Obama’s not smart enough. It’s his backers and handlers that are doing it.

They just found in him a good PR man for their purposes.
