If Trump wins, could Obama declare an emergency suspension of the constitution?

Well, I look at it like this . . . my Cubbies are playing like they can be World Series Contenders. That would all be happening right around the time Obama either becomes dictator, or Trump takes office. Using that logic, I am sure Hell will be freezing over, and the Rapture is right around the corner. Cubs win the World Series and you may as well Kiss Your Arse Goodbye. I'll die happy though.
 
:lol: Why do I suspect that a voters wouldn't be an "informed and tolerant electorate" until they agree with how you vote?

At what point does someone become objectively racist and sexist and not subjectively racist and sexist? Does Trump have to put up giant neon signs that say "I'm a racist" before we can call him that?

I like that you're comparing a military dictatorship to grounding a child.

well, considering our military is a bunch of conservative Republicans (for some reason I have difficulty understanding), I'm sure if anything they'd try and overthrow Obama if he suspended the elections.
 
A Trump presidency could be a real threat to world stability and peace. When the people fail to uphold their end of the deal in democracy IMO it needs to be suspended to keep everything from falling to pieces so that Obama can hold onto power until a more sensible candidate for president is selected. Of course that is radical, but there is no sense in us following the constitution off a cliff.

It would be time to rediscover the balance of power. Live by the imperial Presidency; die by the imperial Presidency.

I'd try and overthrow Obama if he suspended elections.

And if the military decided he was out, he'd be out. Who'd stop them?
