Democratic (socialist/fascist) de facto President Franklin Roosevelt, Esq., signs the Tydings-McDuffie Philippine Independence Act, promising independence to the Federal enclave by 1945.

       Question: Why 1945?  Why not IMMEDIATELY?

       NOTE: As an attorney (Officer of the Court) Roosevelt was ineligible to serve in two branches of government at the same time, according to Article I, Section 6 [Clause 2].
