I’m more surprised there is so LITTLE of this kind of talk.

Obama is a major reason we should limit a president to no more than one term. He created enough damage to this country that it will take 50 years to recover from his disastrous time in the oval office.

Leaders who do not have fear of voters are normally termed dictators. But whatever.

The reason that the referenced WAPO article went viral is probably because low-information voters don’t understand that the federal government has no constitutional Article V authority to ratify proposed amendments to the Constitution, the states uniquely having such power.
And enthusiasm for repealing 22nd Amendement will probably die down, like it has before, because corrupt feds likely don’t want voters to understand the following. They don’t want voters to catch on to the idea that, since only the states can ratify proposed amendments, the states have absolute control over the feds, not vice versa as many low-info voters undoubtedly think. After all, if such knowledge became widespread then it would likely throw a monkey wrench into the Progressive Movement agenda to unconstitutionally centralize government power in DC.

FDR is the single best reason to keep the limit at two terms. Obozo is the best reason to limit it to one.

This is all we are gonna hear now - how little king barry needs more time to complete his UNCONSTIUTIONAL TRANSFORMATION of the USA, and continue his voter mandate of redistribution the wealth of the USA.

Obama is the best reason to allow for recall of a president. Or configure it up like Europe so the government can “collapse” when it loses public support.

I had this fight with a liberal friend earlier today. I told him it sounded great. Then I dropped the bomb.
Instead of statewide vote counts, we count votes by county. Each winning county gets one vote and the most votes wins the state. I said to avoid voter fraud and a potential situation where there is rampant cheating, by counting votes by county, if Philly (where he is from) wants to vote at 125%, they can. It still only counts for one vote.
For some odd reason, he didn’t like that.

There is the problem. The guy is a History Proff and does not even understand that America is not a Democracy. So of course his idea is stupid..........
