Democratic (socialist/fascist) de facto senator Barack Hussein Obama II (a.k.a. Barry Soetoro, Jr.), Esq., of illinois, speaking in Lancaster, pennsylvania promises to reverse the expanding powers of the imperial presidency:

       The biggest problems that we’re facing right now have to do with George Bush trying to bring more and more power into the executive branch and not go through Congress at all. And that’s what I intend to reverse when I’m president of the United States.

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