Constitution? “I” don’t need no steenkin’ constitution. As long as I got me a pen and a phone, no constitution will stand in my way. Bunch of stupid old white guys with “privilege” wrote it anyway.

Mr. Obama told a small group of wealthy supporters...... could we have those names, we need to confront America's enemies as the article goes on to say..... "As men who experienced tyranny first-hand, they understood what always happens when corrupt and unscrupulous individuals desire, acquire, and centralize power, at the expense of the life, liberty, and property of individuals."

Are there still laws/penalties for trying to overthrow our Government? Clearly Barack Obama is desperately trying.....

How I loathe this filthy illegal usurper. Almost, almost as much as the people who foisted him on us.

His Highness should be grateful that it’s not that easy to form additional, newer States ... It’s bad enough that the whims of the high-population centers in a State pretty much select who the Senators are now.

Obama has always yearned to be a populist dictator. He openly advocates socialist programs appealing to the less informed majority of the population. Side by side with these appeals on behalf of the “poor” are demands for social justice, particularly for the black minority but also raising anger in other minorities.

Any populist needs an “enemy” and we all know who that is. Free enterprise is discouraged, even among those groups he champions. If only he had the power, he repeatedly says, paradise for his people could be attained.

“an enormous blind spot”

It might be an amusing project to try to imagine how the Founding Fathers would have reacted to even the possibility of someone with the background, beliefs, personality & character of Barack H. Obama, ever succeeding to the office once held by George Washington. Not having foreseen such a possibility might, one supposes, be seen as a blind spot.

After all, Obama is not the first absurd head of State in human history. He is probably no worse--maybe even marginally better--than a Caligula. (Cannot go more than a "maybe," because of a comparison of the relative potential for permanent damage.)

One of those problems, he said, is the apportionment of two Senate seats to each state regardless of population.

The Founders had assigned the Senate the responsibility of representing the states as sovereign entities. And that among independent and sovereign States, bound together by a simple league, the parties. however unequal in size, ought to have an equal share in the common councils.

It was among a people thoroughly incorporated into one nation that every district ought to have a proportional share in the government.

Barack Obama is a domestic enemy of the Constitution.

Most dictators would be unhappy with the constitution, that’s why they want to change it. The constitution is the only thing that stands in their way to abolish freedom.
