Who else thinks President Obama will remain...?

in president •  8 years ago 

I used to find a lot of articles surrounding the possibly that Obama will remain in office for another term, now I only find articles that he will remain in office if Trump wins..

I'm wondering who else thinks that President Obama will remain in office for another term, regardless of who "wins" the election? I have looked into it a little bit and found that it is possible so long as there is a natural disaster of some kind to allow Martial Law to come into effect.

"Martial law can be used by governments to enforce their rule over the public." "Martial law may be declared in cases of major natural disasters; however, most countries use a different legal construct, such as a state of emergency" "In the event of a potential threat to the security of the United States actions are necessary to ensure the availability of adequate resources and production capability, including services and critical technology, for national defense requirements"

So say something bad happens soon... in less than 8 weeks time. He can declare Martial Law, then change the 22nd Amendment because that is the only thing that is stopping him from continuing his term.

"Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term."

After all why call it an amendment if you can't amend it?

Let's not forget about Baba Vanga's predictions for 2016...
"Barack Obama will be the last president of the US: Baba Vanga had predicted that the 44th US president would be an African American, but she had also added that he would be the last one. According to her, he would leave office at a time when the country would be in economic ruins, and there would be a huge divide between the northern and southern states – as was the case during the American Civil War."

I'm not interested about what the mainstream media has told you or what Obama has supposedly said, I just want to know what YOU think.

hmmm, interesting thoughts. I don't know the answer but I don't like either Clinton or Trump!

i think it's definitely in the realms of possibility especially if this latest episode for Hillary effects her 'media' image and gives a significant boost to Tromp.
in which case if H drops out then Biden would take her place and Tromp would look more like the President, of the USSA.

in which case perhaps the scenario you outlined here may occur, however there is of course an 'infinite' vector of possibilities.

and it seems 'these days' one could throw a dart and hit a 'bad thing' someone said :

"There are a lot of Ravens outside a lot of people windows."

then someone else said :

"so what? Ravens are birds that's what they do hang outside windows."

ha ha.
