I remember all the talk back in 2008 and how George W Bush was going to bring about Martial Law so he could become Dictator of the U.S.
How did that work out again?
4 more years? I really don't think so.

People still believe that Obama is trying to be President for a 3rd term?
LOL, just look at the man.
I heard Obama say something like, "If anyone even THINKS I might be interested in a third term, they don't know my wife at all."
I remember when some of us were concerned about W trying to get a third term. What fools we were! LOL!
Correct.
I suppose that the next POTUS will have a conspiracy thread about them overstaying their welcome in the White House in another 4 or 8 years.

Blah, blah, blah. Your vote doesn't matter. Blah, blah, blah.
I would suggest that the only vote that does not matter is the vote not made. I suspect if every "your vote does not matter" type out there actually showed up and voted in the 2016 election, it would have a noticeable impact. But you won't.
Hell, if every eligible person of voting age actually voted, regardless of national or local elections, the effect would be huge. But I suppose it's easier not to be burdened with the task of voting, and just complain on websites that your vote doesn't count.
If every one of you showed up and voted third party, guess what? 2016 would have a third party President. But you won't.

Obama isn;t aggressive enough and Americans attention span and love for anything is fleeting.
Hillary is the Eternal friend of Israel, biggest war hawk, finance scammer, liar and cheat.
They want her.
The media can spin it for months, too. A First! A Woman in the White House!
And the band plays on.

Why not?
People rabidly believed it about GW. I remember that whole thing about how he was going to declare war on Iran and use that as pretext to grab power. They even had the "secret" Pentagon war strategies to "prove" it was going to happen.

Oh man this story goes at least as far back as Reagan, that is when I first heard it. Reagan and the military and FEMA, then it was Bush Sr, with the NWO and he only got 4 years, Clinton was doing it with UN troops, Bush Jr. was doing with DHS and now Obama is doing with satan, CIA, Muslims, Communists or whatever stupid idea is the flavor of the moment.
Presidents who do 8 years want to get out. They all make that very clear after. If offered they would decline because it is a thankless job and for 8 years you never have an actual day off. A day off is an 8 hour day. No wonder they all look 30 years older when they are done. Once out they can do speaking tours and write books and make millions. And once your out people always soften on you while they are beating on the new guy.

And THAT would be the only reason I could think he might possibly try it, but I'm not terribly worried because he doesn't, at this point, have the popular support to actually pull it off.

Hell, he's had 160 days off, and on top of that, spent 220 days on the golf course. That was the report during the first quarter of 2015. He should stay well rested.

Funny that they would think that about Bush but laugh off the same being said about the man that will go over anybody's head with an executive order if things don't go his way. From 2006 to 2008, Bush was denied passing anything by his blue Congress. obama has set a new bar.
