Here is the rationale that says he could and would if he decided to...from Rush Limbaugh ::
The Republican Party has made it clear that they will not use that
constitutional measure as a means of reining Obama in, and maybe even
getting him out of office. They have also made it very clear in just
the most recent vote on the funding for Department of Homeland Security
that they will not use the power of the purse to stop Obama. Okay, so
those duo realities equal Obama fully aware the Republican Party will
take no steps to stop him in his ongoing violations and running up to
the edges of the Constitution.
Now, let's fast forward to, say, May, June of 2016.
Let's say that Mrs. Clinton has withstood all of this e-mail stuff,
that Elizabeth Warren has not gotten in the race, that Algore took the
temperature and decided not to go, that it's just Mrs. Clinton and Joe
Biden. On the other side, the Republican field has a great list of
possible candidates, and they will have by that time engaged in a
vigorous debate which may have served to educate the country on the
foibles and the problems of the past eight years, and the country may be
looking forward to a dramatic change to Republican in the election of
2016.
Obama fully aware of this, would go on television and say that the
Democrat field is so weak that he's not confident that Mrs. Clinton can
win. He might even take steps to make sure she can't win. You know,
sabotage her campaign. And then call a national speech to the nation in
which the main point is that it's beginning to look like the
Republicans will win the White House, and this is something that he
can't risk. Not after eight courageous years of transforming America!
We
just He will say he cannot put it all to the risk of being unraveled and undone by
these racist, sexist, misogynist, whatever else Republicans. So as a
service to the nation and for the nation, he is going to forget the
Twenty-Second Amendment and either not leave office or run for
reelection himself as the Democrat nominee. Just imagine that scenario.
I don't care how unreal it sounds, how unbelievable it sounds. Imagine
it. What would anybody do? What would Mitch McConnell do? What would
John Boehner do?
Mark Levin would have a heart attack.
I would have an aneurysm.
We'd be done.
What would anybody do? The Supreme Court would say, "Nobody has
standing here! There's no case yet. Obama hasn't done anything yet. We
can't do anything about this until he actually serves a third term, and
then you gotta bring the case to us." What would anybody do if he says
this? The media would be cheering it. Put all this in the mix. This
guy's out there thinking about this. It's hard to believe, it's so
unlikely, but don't think... Obama's planning on staying in Washington
part of time.
He's got a plan to continue to live in Washington after he has left
office for that exact reason. Whoever the next president is, Republican
or Democrat, if that next president starts to unravel any of this,
Obama's on television every night. He knows he's gonna have the media in
his back pocket and whoever the next president is will not get away
with anything without a huge fight from Obama. What would the
Republicans do? I think the odds are the Republicans
might call an emergency constitutional convention and amend the
Twenty-Second Amendment, permitting Obama to do this because their fear
of being critical of Obama would destroy their chances of winning with
the independents.
