Sorry to use a vanity on this. But it seems somewhat important. I haven't heard it yet, but the description is: Slavery and the Constitution Richard John - Associate professor of history at the University of Illinois at Chicago and the author of Spreading the News: The American Postal System from Franklin to Morse Barack Obama - Illinois State Senator from 13th district and a senior lecturer in the law school at the University of Chicago Jan Lewis - Professor of history at Rutgers University, in Newark, New Jersey. She is the author of the forthcoming book Women, Slaves, and the Creation of a Liberal Republic

The only part of the Constitution that is flawed is where the founding fathers failed to put in term limits on members of Congress. But then, eliminating that would have been the very first amendment to it.

I have not listened to the entire program, but I’ve listened to the clip where he claims the Constitution is “fundamentally flawed.” Notice that he never says what the “flaw” is? I think in his mind, the “flaw” is that is exists at all.

Question: Can Barack Obama take an oath without mental reservation to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States?

"I, Barrack Hussein Obama... do solemnly swear... to uphold the constitution of the United States... as I see fit to interpret it and revise it"...

Fact of the matter is he cannot take an oath in support of an agreement (constitution, contract) he has publicly declared is fundamentally flawed.

"Fundamentally flawed" contracts are routinely declared invalid by the courts.

Obama, being a lawyer, supposedly a brilliant one, knows this. Therefore he has declared the constitution null and void even prior to taking office.

Wow, Megyn Kelly is ripping the Obama spokesmouth a new one over their tactics of attacking the messenger (in this case, Fox News) instead of addressing the very words that came out of their own candidate's mouth! She got really fed up with his campaign blaming Fox, Joe the Plumber, McCain, etc. for Obama's stinking socialist mouth. Of course, he tries to play the "this is a distraction" card. Notice how they always trot out that line when they have no defense?
