Does the Constitution allow the military to overthrow the Obama administration and the Democratic Party?
President Obama
According tο thе Constitution thе military іѕ permitted tο overthrow аnу party thаt іѕ abusing thеіr powers. Thе qυеѕtіοn іѕ іf Obama аnԁ thе Democrats аrе abusing thеіr powers? Thе аnѕwеr іѕ yes wіth out a doubt. Thе Democratic party hаѕ abused thеіr powers whеn thеу used thеіr government positions tο allow thеіr sponsors tο υѕе thе airways, public schools, colleges, park systems, both Houses, thе Judiciary аnԁ thе Presidency tο cause half οf thе citizens οf thе United States tο act discriminatory against Christians ѕο thаt thеу сουƖԁ сrеаtе аn atmosphere іn whісh thеу сουƖԁ ɡеt away wіth thе criminal act οf fabricating thе fallacious First Amendment redefinition called "separation οf church аnԁ state" ѕο thаt thеу сουƖԁ сrеаtе a Constitutional mandate tο force Christians tο act Ɩіkе Atheists іn public аnԁ thereby conform tο thе Socialists goal tο establish Atheism аѕ thе state religion іn America аnԁ ѕο thаt thеіr Socialist judges сουƖԁ ɡеt away wіth thе criminal act οf citing thе legal precedence οf οthеr nations іn order tο change thе laws іn America tο conform wіth thе Socialist's agenda tο legalize thе Socialist mores іn America.
I don’t recall the constitution permitting the military to overthrow any political that is abusing their power.
Can you let me know what part of the constitution says that?
You have a very warped view of the world. Stew in your bitter hate.
War mongering for profit, illegal wiretapping and illegal torture. If your theory is correct Bush would have been gone years ago. And now Blackwater is added to the list.
No.
Why yes…it is Amendment 4Q! Read that carefully…there is hidden meaning, just for you.
Schmuck! So many @ssholes, so little time.
Where in the Constitution does it say that the military is permitted to overthrow any party that is abusing their power?
Show me the clause.
Certainly I do not recall reading any such clause.
dude just be happy that we live in the land of the free
I couldnt agree with you more. We are all little to blame for allowing government to become the way it has, but it needs to stop here. The federal government was never supposed to feed, cloth, employ, provide healthcare, or make decisions about what we can or can’t put into our bodies.
They had a simple task, keep a standing army and handle foreign relations, states were supposed to have more power.
No, but if you read the Declaration of Independence it says that it is the duty of the people to over throw a tyanical government:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
If so, the Republicans would have taken advantage of this idea a looong time ago, personal opinions aside.
As much as I would love to, I’m afraid the U.S. Constitution doesn’t make any such provisions for the military to overthrow the lawfully elected government. Besides, if we overthrew the government, who would sign our paychecks?
Okay I’m a republican and I don’t like Obama, but come on dude. Seriously? Your letting your hate get to your head.
The answer is no!
Why don’t you try READING the Constitution?
The military is completely under civilian control at the very top. Congress mandates its manpower and funding. The President orders it to go to this country or that one. It has no say in these issues. The federal military is not authorized to act in ANY capacity within our borders except in the case of a catastrophic disaster, and even then, its powers are limited.
The military is not going to overthrow anybody, unless somebody like Hitler took over the country. And I don’t see that as very likely. Maybe you equate Democrats with Hitler, I don’t know.
Our government is representative. This means the majority wins, and rules. Fortunately, there’s a change up possible every four years. The people have a voice. Nobody "abused" anybody into electing Democrats this go round. Never fear, by 2016, the Republicans will likely be back in power again, most likely.
I may disagree with the Commander in Chief and his recent pick to the Supreme Court on what the Constitution means but that is a far cry from being a domestic enemy of the Constitution.
While you are correct that yes the oath of enlistment does require me to "Support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies both foreign and domestic, " before it it requires me to "Obey the orders of the President of the United States," you are flat out wrong on your assumption that Obama has violated the Constitution to the point that a military coup is in order.
If a President ever decided to proclaim themselves President for Life, arrested the House of Representatives and the US Senate, or tried to get rid of the 9 justices on the Supreme Court maybe the oath would require the military to march on DC but a simple disagreement on what the Constitution means is no such reason and quite frankly I would smoke any Soldier in my section who said it did. Under your theory we should have had a military coup every few years as ever since the Constitution was written people have been in disagreement over what it means (IE Federalists V. Anti Federalists, and strict interpritation V. a living breathing document) A military coup is an event that is to serious to joke about and, as for myself I will be saddened if the day ever came the US military had to conduct one.
If you do not like the current President you get your chance in 2012 to get rid of him at the ballot box. You should not want the Army rolling in to DC with Abrams Tanks to do that. In 99.9999% of all cases such talk is about as Un-American as you can get.
Please give me facts where Obama or any democrat is abusing any power,and what sponsors are you talking about??Do we have to believe exactly like you?and if we don’t is this the people you’re talking about?If you are a true christian,no law or person will change your faith.For your information atheism isn’t a faith.Just the opposite.You need to go to church and say 7 hail mary’s.
The Constitution doesn’t but the Declaration of Independence makes a pretty good and comparable case for it.
Please cite your reference in the constitution.
