The military? No military leader would dare oppose him or attempt a military takeover of the country. The Justice Department? Holder would endorse Obama's takeover. The citizenry? A revolt would be put down hard. Thousands would be killed and imprisoned.

The law requires all military officers and noncoms to disobey blatantly illegal orders. Beyond that, as a career Navy guy, I can say that a dictator Obama would be on his own re. the military. As for Obama ordering the military to fire on civilians fighting a King Obama, the military wouldn't.

Yes, members of the military required to disobey unlawful orders. Not only that but as part of the oath of office that military officers take when being commissioned includes their swearing “to defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL enemies, foreign AND DOMESTIC”.

If Obama would try something like suspending the constitution, he’d find himself in the Quantico brig within hours.

Oh wait.... Obama closed the Quantico brig in December.

Maybe he’ll avoid arrest and, with help from Eric Holder’s “Justice” Department’s FBI, flee to the Saudi embassy for asylum.
