John Bolton: Gun control a top goal of Obama 2nd term
Politico ^ | Apr 29, 2011 | James Hohman

John Bolton suggested Friday that Barack Obama is laying the foundation to push an ambitious gun control agenda if he wins a second term.

"We can understand that, as he likes to say, he's playing the long game, and that 'leading from behind' means waiting until he's elected to a second term when he faces no further political constraints and his true agenda can come to the floor, "Bolton told thousands of gun owners at the National Rifle Association's annual meeting here. "And I believe right at the top of it is [to] increase gun control at the federal level and at the international level."

When I finally got to vote in TX, all I had left standing to vote for was McCain, Huckleberry, and Paul. I voted for Paul in the primary.

Yeah that sucks....we have little tiny states deciding who's going to run??? B.S.

By the time I could vote here in OK...it was McLame..or Mitt. I knew McLame was going to get the nod...so I voted for Mitt. And I hate him too!! Ha!!

Who’s to say he wouldn’t order the Capitol building locked down until every member of Congress could be arrested? Then who’s to stop him moving on to the Senate, then the Supreme Court?

Meanwhile we found the birth certificate thanks to Trump and it shows he’s unconstitutionally eligible.

WAKE UP AMERICA you cannot be selective on which parts of the Constitution is valid!

But they DO need congressional FUNDING, making it even more critical to send only the best folks up there.

Isn’t it something how we will become felons by following the Constitution.

Screw them. I was born under the US Constitution and intend to live my life under it.

Just because we have a foreigner running the show, it doesn’t mean that we have to submit to his UN world view.

Will not submit.

UniqueViews, if obama wins a second term, and barring a miracle I believe that he will for reasons I have stated numerous times. You will not recognize this Nation come January 2013.His handlers already have the changes that they are going to instruct him to implement as soon as it is apparent that he has the most votes. And all the changes will be bad for us.

John Bolton has a lot to offer. If the GOP nominee is a RINO, selecting Bolton as VP would help the ticket hugely.

Once we control the House and the Senate, we can impeach Obama when he further violates his oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution and laws of the land.
