Epic Obama Quotes: "I can't spend all my time with my birth certificate plastered on my forehead. . . . The facts are the facts. And so, it's not something that I can I think spend all my time worrying about. And I don't think the American people want me to spend all my time worrying about it."

This explains why the USA is still the largest economy in the world, has recovered from the Recession and isn't in the middle of a revolution with the streets running red with blood.

Go to Uzbekistan and see what it looks like when a leader is running their country into the ground. Until then, keep your partisan bullshit to yourself.

Survive the revolution and be the architect of a new legal system. Far better.

I fear if we rebuilt it from scratch it would be civil law and that really shrinks the market for lawyers.

Not to mention "well, at least we're not in an anarchy/things haven't completely collapsed" isn't exactly a good argument in favor of Obama or his policies.
