Can we start a WH petition to get Obama to try to run for a 3rd term?

I know that there's that whole 22nd Amendment thing, but I think it'd be fun to fuck with the freepers and RWNJs who think that Obama is evil.

Fox likes to serve up fear and loathing and this should keep them busy for a few years.



Just a thought, carry on.

2. If it's good enough for Hugo Chavez, then it would be great for Obama

Oh wait. That may not be a winning narrative for his re-re-election.

Never mind.

3. "If it was good enough for Papa Doc..."

Oh, wait...that one might not test well with focus groups, either.

9. Reagan opposed term limits and wanted to repeal

the 22nd amendment. Just find the clips!

17. It would figure that they would project their own

evil plans onto the Democrats.

6. Only thing worse...8 years of Madam President Hillary !!!

and Bill as SOS, Chelsea to run his non-profit (or Senate Seat) and Obama as Ambassador to the UN, Barbara Boxer as Secretary of Defense...or any combination thereof.

This is the Liberal's Dream and the Republican Nightmare.

8. The worst would be a Repub president for 8 years after Obama.

Hillary would be the best of the two evils.

10. I should have put the Sarcasm thingy...will do it.

13. I understood, don't think the good Reb got it. RebelOne's concern seemed to have been wanting

n republican to follow Obama. I do agree with Reb the Hil is our best choice for preventing that, even if the repubs put up Christie.

7. There goal would then be to make him a two term president.

[bluestate10]

11. I love our President, but I am 100%, unalterably opposed to him having a third term.

Once he finishes in January 2017, it is time to move on. I hope that moving on will be a woman standing near the, on that day, former President Obama to take the oath of office as our first female President, as long as that woman is a democrat.

12. That would be awesome because it would freak out the reich wing

14. Theoretically possible

A very slight chance that we have an overwhelmingly Democratic House and Senate and state houses. Very unlikely, but the Republicans just could pull it off with their insanity. Even so, this top heavy Democratic USA would not have much reason to repeal the 22nd Amendment. And likely Obama wouldn't be interested. But since it is possible to talk about it as theoretically do-able until November, 2014, I say we do it to drive the right wingers crazy.

15. Reading the 22nd Amd. brings up an interesting

trivia question - serving more than 2 years of another's term means that someone who has taken over from the VPresidency can only have 6 years maximum as President.

16. I like the cut of your jib, sailor...

Have a drink, on me!
