Aren't you listening to pocket? The constitution is open to endless interpretation, it means whatever he thinks it means, whatever he says it means, no matter how detached that conclusion might be from the original intent of the language. Original intent is for knuckle dragging mouth breathers (Republicans and Tea Party types), interpreting the constituton as saying whatever the hell you want it to say is very Progressive.


Obama should, once again, totally ignore any and all laws that get in the way of his Progressive agenda. That's the pragmatic approach and it's working very well for him so far. Furthermore, he should totally ignore Congress (since it wouldn't be pragmatic to disband Congress at the moment) and simply rule by executive order.


I wonder why Pocket hasn't pointed out that the 22nd amendment actaully authorizes Obama to serve unlimited consecutive terms as president and not just the two terms, as it's currently interpreted by the knuckle dragging mouth breathers.
