They really ARE trying to have Obama be our permanent Dictator!

Funny, I never realized that FDR was a dictator.

Cant see who would do better then Obama as president..

Oh there is one that I would like to see US president, that guy Jessy Ventura, he fight for the truth and say what he thinks.. but that would just be to good to be true

I don't get why we have such limits anyway. If Obama wants to run for a third term, he should be able to do so. This country is lucky to have him for president. I'll vote for him again if he runs.

He wasn't a dictator by any stretch of the word.
He was just attempting to become one.

At the moment, no, he shouldn't be able to. Because it's written into the constitution. If we violate what's written into the constitution what governs us besides people's personal opinions?

However, if we change that 22nd Amendment then it's perfectly acceptable.

Solomon was right, "There is nothing new under the sun." The same thing was said about Bush 6 years ago. That didn't pan out. This won't either.

Yeah it will, because corruption set in the U.S. government a long time ago. Were following in the foosteps of ancient Rome, right down to the letter. This is part of that "nothing new under the sun" per Ecclesiastes 1:9 you quoted. History repeating itself once again. They've been spoonfeeding us dictatorship for 150 years, since the Civil War and it started with Lincoln and his Big Government push. Dictatorship is the next step, don't you see the fed government taking over everything? Big sign right there.

What article are you referring to? Who believes Obama is a dictator?

We don't need any "birther" theories on this one. Jose Serrano, a Democrat Congressman has been introducing legislation for a number of years. He may not be doing it on behalf of Obama, he may want the job himself after Obama goes.

no wrong....this is one representative...it DOES NOT represent liberals....i can't believe all the hyperbolic rhetoric on this thread, and coming from the right

Given Obama's popularity among Democrats I would say a lot of them would like to keep him in indefinitely. One thing to be considered though, If things were to go the way of Tunisia and Egypt after people become angry with long term leaders, he could end up going out in the same style as Mubarak and Ben Ali...running and hiding and taking the loot with them.

Don't the polls indicate he was the only president the public received less well than G.W. ?

I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that he's the idol of all democrats. He isn't. And frankly, it doesn't matter. No one wants to extend the presidency beyond 2 terms - Democrat or Republican.

It requires a Constitutional Amendment. That typically takes about 7 years even when they DO pass. (rare). And we went 150 yrs without Presidential term limits and the sky didn't fall. However, this is meaningless.

Wow some people will believe anything.

Judging by his "landslide" victory in November? Unless, we were right about those Soros machines swapping out votes...

ok so you think that Jose Serrano is just a lone guy on this? Could be why his bill never gets any traction.
So you don't think an 83 to 90 percent approval rate among Democrats would get him at least a third term?

www.realclearpolitics.com...

If he is allowed to continue his rampage through Congress and signing Executive Orders to go around the Constitution on UN programs like Agenda 21, people might finally see what is going on and vote him out, at least the ones who still want liberty and private property and not the Communitarianism of Green Socialism.

But even if the general population of Democrats are not still enamored by him, I think the large numbers of Democratic Socialists in Congress still would like him to be in charge longer. But who says they are sane people?

The real question here is what are they trying to distract us from by focusing on a bill that will most likely fail?

This US Rep, a democrat- of course- is trying once again to bestow kingdom on the usurper.

www.popvox.com...

H.J.Res. 15: Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the twenty-second article of amendment, thereby removing the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President.

Remove the term limits, hack the voting machines (completed), and you too can have perpetual rule, even in America. Amerika. The end.

So they are going for a monarchy, dictatorship type rule???? Weird. Well then, "Every knee shall bow."
OHHH, where have I heard that before???
Ah, I think I got it..
The Pharoah is in the house.

It says 2009-2010. So is this still in the works? Is it still being pushed?

It is a bill reintroduced in the 113th Congress. The original bill, was H.J. 5 (111th Congress); the current rehash is H.J. 15.

The same thing was said about NDAA and NDRP. Have those been repelled yet? No they haven't.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet.

And as others have pointed out, it's been introduced several times under many different administrations...so my statement stands it is quite easy to get birthers into a lather. The OP and some other posters are acting like this has passed both houses, been signed off on and is being brought before the States, people seem to forget it is rather difficult to directly change our Constitution. Circumventing it however...

Who said those wouldn't pass?
I think it was fairly obvious to anyone even glancing that those bills were shoe ins.

Repealing term limits on the Presidency though? Not even close... if this even makes it past committee you can mail me a shoe and I'll eat it.

Anyone with 1 working brain cell knows that Ron Paul was the only legitimate official that ran for president,spoe about real Issues,and would have tried to clean up and restore our country to some sort of respectable condition.

The sad part is that he would have been assasinated within a month or two.Unless the VP was jesse venture.

The whole election process is a farse,the president is a puppet and this guy is the best sweettalkin BS artist to ever sit in the white house.Clinton got nothing on him in the BS arena

And the lower/middle class think hes the best thing since sliced bread cause he makes promise after promise and lie after lie and interacts as a lower or middle class person. THey think hes "one of us" unlike the billionaires that are so far removed from reality that they dont have a clue what real average people go thru on a daily basis.

Why dont he just make an executive order saying they can do 4 terms. Hes the Exec Order king.
The US is in big trouble and no ones doing anything about it.

Bush wasn't a "Conservative" as you put it. You clearly are trying to over simplify complex political thought.

Bush was a corporatist war mongerer, a Neo-conservative, which is pretty much a made up term in itself.

More of a fascist than anything, and Obama is putting him to shame by being twice as bad.
